Homemade oscillating spindle sander

In this video I'll be building an oscillating spindle sander. • Features are: • -Table tilts to over 45 degrees. • -Table inserts! • -Toggleable oscillation with a max 45mm stroke, as well as adjustability on how far and how high it oscillates. • -Interchangable spindles (or there would be if i'd made more than one). • -Efficient dust collection. • -Flammable. • -Cost effective with equivalent sanders retailing at well over £300 new. • -Can be built with easily sourced materials and a minimum of tools (I use a lathe in the video for convenience, but anything that required accuracy was hand scraped or designed to be adjustable). • There's a CAD model of the sander available for download at this link if you want to try building it or just borrow ideas: • https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1DQ... (last two links died. Not sure how google drive works but hopefully it works) • It opens with Google Sketchup, a free CAD program that I think is great. It's designed to be easy and intuitive to learn. • http://www.sketchup.com/ • If anything isn't clear on the model or in the video post a comment and i'll try reply to you. • Also note that the model was made on a 1920x1200 pixel monitor, so things might not be framed too well on different sized monitors. • Matthias featured this on his website. There's a little bit more info on it (a few more details on the oscillating mechanism I felt I skipped over). • http://woodgears.ca/sander/spindle_sa...
