This is a wish list page - we don't have this tool yet!

ToolInfoBox Disc Sander

Synonyms:	disk sander; DE: Tellerschleifer, Schleifteller
Type:	sander
Status:	under construction
Material:	wood
Used with:	250 mm sanding discs (velcro, no holes)
Location:	Lukas (proper place TBD)
Access Requirements:	help finish the build ;-)

Lukas is building a disc sander that is driven by the "Güde 1000" wood lathe! It should not be that hard to do but the awkward work angle may be a disadvantage.

build progress:

sanding disc ✔
- find out which maximum size would fit on the lathe - 320 mm according to its wiki page ✔
- find out which sizes of sanding discs (Schleifscheiben) are common and affordable in that range - 250 mm (approx. 10") looks good ✔
- make a faceplate for the lathe ✔
- apply velcro disc ✔
- do a bit of test sanding ✔
table
- sturdy box that can be mounted on the lathe bed
- miter fence
- dust extraction
- (optional?) tilting top
commissioning

Speed

Comparable tools are run with speeds between 250 and 750 m/min. Therefore, only the lowest speed of the lathe should be used to drive the sanding disc (850 rpm -> approx. 667 m/min at the edge).

Cleaning

Sandpaper can be restored a few times before it is used up by briefly sanding a piece of rubber! Instead of proper cleaning sticks you can apparently get great results with the sole of an old shoe - any donors? ;-)

-Important preparations:
-* find out which maximum size would fit on the lathe - '''320 mm''' according to its wiki page
-* find out which sizes of sanding discs (''Schleifscheiben'') are common and affordable in that range - '''250 mm''' (approx. 10") looks good
-* '''make''' or get a faceplate for the lathe (in progress)
-* apply velcro disc
-* start sanding
