The 3m cubitron II belts in the higher grits that I have run fine. I am guessing that those norton bluefire belts were cut poorly or something. Unfortunately I tested every belt out of the ten that I ordered to be positive that they were the problem so I wont be getting a refund. Live and...

Well i've tried all i could think of and still only one of ten belts ran true. I guess this means that im done until january when I can afford to get more belts. Thank you all for your comments. This has been a lesson learned.

Hello all. I've been having some serious issues with belt wobble and I cant seem to correct it. The belts are norton bluefire that i ordered off of amazon theough texas knife maker. I have tried every belt and 1 out of ten doesn't wobble side to side horribly. The belt slides to the right...

Well its been a big week for my little shop. I've got in some major upgrades. My pheer 454 sander came in and I love it .... might even name it. The owner of pheer grinders mr jose navaro has been a great help. On to the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNdY2d_Ib1c

This is my pheer 454 2 x72 belt sander with a 2 hp 3 phase balder super e motor and a ac tech smvector vsd. There are many like it but this one is mine.

Looks like a well build knife. I have always liked tops knives. That one should last you several lifetimes. Nice looking sheath to boot.

Lol. I didn't figure anyone would get the phrase. Its a personal motto I guess. I would have used bellum numquam mutat but i did not have room to do it justice. The chair and I have a love hate relationship. I figure if I end up keeping it that soon it wont be much more than sawdust and...

Neat.

Nice find man. I have an old head from the 60's that I will one day restore.

I lived in fort walton beach florida while i was in the military. I remember the humidity well. Here in the mountains I have the opposite problem. It is allready getting down to 30 at night. With my walls unfinished I have to run my kerosine heater full bore and its still cold in the little...

Believe it or not I spent a grand total of 60 dollars thus far for all the materials. Priddy's usually has good deals on building supplies.

Yeah he is a nice guy. I am super stoked to get my machine in. I like the look of the 1 x 6 so much that i've decided to carry on up the wall with them. I'm also gonna rebuild my entire high bench with them as well. Hopefully having finished walls will help keep my little shop warmer...

I ordered a pheer 454 with a 2 hp baldor motor and a ac tech sm vector programmable digital drive control. Mr navaro is a great guy. He had no problems talking with me and answering all of my questions (of which there were many). I can't wait to get my sander in. I'll post a setup vid when I...

I love the bolster on that blade.

Well I broke down and ordered a new 2 x 72 2 hp belt sander and decided that a new sander needs a nice new home. So I got some 1 x 6 untreated lumber and went to town. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to sand some on it. I gotta say that the lumber quality from priddy's is a lot better than...
