Very cool and nicely done.

You all might be interested in this link for a edge sander and thickness sander plans.

http://www.plansnow.com/shoptools.htm

I have them and there is some good ideas in them which you could maybe use in the future.

Mike…It’s not used to “thickness” boards. That task is handled by my 16-32 performax. I built this machine primarily to flatten wood and radius fingerboards but it serves many other functions as well. As for the paper, I bought it from Grizzly, it a 6”X80” belt but the machine will handle up to an 8” wide belt. I found a company that specializes in custom belts, but I haven’t ordered any as of yet.
