If your workshop doesn't have one of these combination sanders, it's probably because you don't think you need it. But put it to work once and you'll realize you can't get along without it. Its uses are endless. You know those tight curves and angles you have to sand by hand? Not anymore, thanks to this Shopmaster sander. The automatic belt-tensioning and tracking controls are conveniently located and easy to use, and the built-in power takeoff for a flexible shaft accessory (sold separately) is a great extra touch that allows you to accomplish any number of additional tasks. Finishing curves or odd-shaped work is a cinch when you remove the belt platen, and you'll even be sanding chamfers and bevels just by tilting the sturdy aluminum tables on either sander. The disc is a fabulous 8 inches, which opens up all kinds of uses. The side panel removes in a blink to change belts. The 1-inch belt sands 3,000 surface feet per minute, and the disc travels at 1,725 rpm for aggressive stock removal, all powered by a 1/3-horsepower induction motor. A built-in dust port allows connection to your dust management system. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Not even close to Quality!!!!!!!!!! November 26, 2008
Where do I start? I was in a hurry to get the sander so I shopped around to find one that would be here in 2 days and it ended up taking a week and a half. When it finely got here I spent about 1 hour putting it together, and let me tell you the quality is crap, it is definity a product of out-sourcing, the drive pulley and transfer shaft are not in alignment. The tensioning pulley is cranked all the way in to keep the belt tracking in the right position. Both table rests are poor cast quality with the tops just planed flat. Before I could even use it the 8in. wheel had to be clearanced of casting flash with a die-grinder. All in all totally disappointed with the product. If I were to do it again I probly would not buy another delt product without playing the hands on game. The bottom line is I would not recommend this product to my 4yr. old.
Poor Quality March 23, 2008
As commented by others, assembly was estimated to take 1-2 hours. I'd like to meet anyone who can put this thing together in that amount of time. I had one problem after another. Their is very little space to put many of the parts on the sanding head. After two evenings and a few hours, I had the thing put together except for the two cast iron tables. Neither table could be installed. First problem was finding the exact position of the disk sander table so it could pivot. Next the clamp assembly's locking stud was to large to fit into the bored hole. Then I tried both studs in the belt table and neither stud would fit. I am going to throw in the towel and return it for a refund.

Its ok for a cheap sander. The top idler does not really work that well. Making it hard to center the belt. The bracket that holds the idler is to light duty and bents under its own spring tension. Also the dust removal does not work very well. And so the rest of the sander is also light duty but does not seem to bend. I would not buy it again.

 Great sander! February 8, 2008
I bought this sander to build wooden structures for my model railroad. I am building wooden through girder bridges that require many odd angles and precise fitting. This tool is perfect for this process. It is a very solidly built machine and as the belt sander frame is cast iron it is also quite heavy. It is not the kind of thing that you would want to carry around much but once you get it to your work area it stays put! The shipping weight was around 62 pounds! It is not designed for large projects but is great for hobby and small projects. This is a keeper!!
Rockwell belt and disk sander December 31, 2007

The safety guard for the belt pulley and disk is very poor from an assembly standpoint. The small screws that attach the guard to the machine are very difficult to install and tighten. Tightening the screws requires positioning a small allen wrench through a deep hole in the guard. This particular feature is very poorly designed and may result in the guard not being installed properly.
