Ryobi Belt Sander £59.99 @ TJ Hughes

[jg]

I think this is the same one I bought last year (was £49.99 then when BA posted the offer)

It's big, it's heavy, and it is brilliant. Although I bought it last year, I only got round to using it in the last few weeks. It'll pull you over if you're not careful, but if you need some serious sanding, this is what you need.

Good price too.

Ah yes, meant to post a link :)

BA, do you have any trouble attaching the sanding frame? I found it a real fiddle.

I think it would be a good one to use as a stationary sander, might figure out a way to mount it once i've finished using it on the table i'm doing at the moment.

I'm not sure if it's for everyone or not, but I had an email from TJ Hughes offering free delivery for orders placed this weekend.

it comes with 2 clamps for mounting hence why it has 2 tubular ribs on the top with holes in the centre dead link removed i dont use the frame as i am a real man lol
all you need do is keep the sander moving don't go sideways but forward at an angle then straighten up

i can sand one handed without getting dips at the back

Ah yep, forgot about those.
They must be in the big suitcase still, i've not botherd putting it away since I first used it :)
