Has anyone out there tried to create their own disk sander. I would like to make a 12 inch sander with a motor that I have. I was curious to find out if anyone has had any success with this and possibly any suggestions to help me along.

Shop Notes magazine recently had plans to build one. You may get some ideas from their plan online: http://www.shopnotes.com/issues/096/extras/multi-purpose-disk-sander/

If your motor is ball bearing, 5/8" shaft, and 1725 RPM, then the sanding disk from Shopsmith will work. There have been several articles over the years on building a sander.
