The following entry is Thomas Hirsz's Custom Stroke Sander. Thomas built his sander to sand tabletops and fit well in his shop. His sander was originally included at the Project Gallery, and is re-listed at the Shop Built Jigs and Rigs Forum as an example of what WOODWEB would encourage participants to post.
This is the first photo of Thomas's Stroke Sander. His machine uses a 5 hp.,1730 rpm single phase motor. The belt speed is 1895 fpm. The belt wheels are doubled up 12" forklift wheels on stub trailer axles. The sliding tray uses 400 lb. full extension slides. The banks of drawers underneath for small tools and shop supplies are not finished.
The item shown below was excerpted from a January 2005 Project Gallery listing: Custom Stroke Sander posted by Thomas Hirsz. Readers are reminded to evaluate the significance and the limitations of the information provided below, and consider the responsibility they assume when applying the information for their own use.
