| « Part 1: mystery jointer | Part 2 of Tools series | Part 3: well my Jointer is broke » |
My dad found this old 1 inch belt sander at a garage sale for 5 bucks and I was looking on old woodworking machines and sure enough the one he gave me last week is the same as the one in the link. i plan on using it when i get a motor for it.
:update
I have found a motor for my sander from a friend at work cleaning out his garage.

Very Nice…
I love the Antiques and old tools, expecially getting to see them still in operation.
Congrats on the Very nice Gift and the refinish, looks great!

Great old timer. Bet it is better then a LOT of them from the big box stores or HF.
Congrats on the gift.

I think it great when someone like yourself restores an old tool and makes it useful again. You will especially appreciate this when you get to my age and the past is still tangible in your memory, but has mostly disappeared from the real world.

Dang Joe, six months ago I sold several old motors. A couple of them would have been great for that sander. Should be a good one when you get it running.
