Has anyone here purchased this sander, looked it over closely or maybe seen a demo work? Just wondering what your thoughts were. I'm kicking around the idea of buying one. Looks like it would save an awful lot of time by running boards through to remove planer marks. I have a stack of hickory that is just begging for something like this. Bryan

Yes, but I think I could get the 12inch in the basement without "somebody" noticing. A 24inch would be a little more difficult. :) Bryan

She'll give you plenty of room ... by the time the dust clears and she has ventured into your sanctum sanctorum (wood shop) you can look her in the eye and honestly say: "Why no, hon ... that isn't new." ;-) 'New' is SUCH a subjective term ... ;-) Bill
