I have a small PC belt sander (2 1/2" x 14). It is great for what I need, but eats belts. I also have a PC 3 X 21") belt sander and a PC 4".
My shoulders and back are so far gone, that I never even get the 4" out anymore, and the 3" is difficult for me to use no also, but the main problem is that the dust collection on it is terrible. Actually the baby one is not bad, again, except for the belt breakage.
I seldom use a belt sander, except for when I trim out particle board with oak, and level the trim with the sander, before putting on formica.
What I am wanting is a lightweight 3" belt sander with a low center of gravity and good dust collection using a shop vac. I won't use it much so an inexpensive one is fine. I have other sanders for more normal use.
Any recommendations for an old gimp?
