Oscillating spindle sander.
S. Heslop:
Here's another video. This time on an oscillating spindle sander i've built.
It's probably better to watch it natively on youtube than embedded, you get a bigger picture frame and there's some stuff in the video descrption like a link to the cad file.
Also thanks to the folk that helped with the chuck problem.
BillTodd:
Nice :)
Had to laugh at you with the saw and that 2x2 steel bar :P did you consider using tube?

Hi there, Simon,
That's a good project brought to a good result. You certainly don't hang about. :clap: :clap: :clap:
Shows me up - I tend to over-think my projects. 'Sometimes I sits and thinks but sometimes I just sits.' :scratch: :Doh: :scratch: :Doh: :scratch: :Doh:
I don't mean to be a smart-a**e but one thing puzzled me though - considering how ingenious and productive you are with wood, why didn't you think to make a wooden fixed steady? It would have avoided a wait and would have been durable enough to sort out your spindle problem.

My original plan was to weld 2 50x50x5mm angle iron bits together to make a tube but I didn't fancy my chances of getting them aligned that well. I also find that the edges of square tube tend to be slightly concave and without a mill it'd be alot of hassle filing and scraping them flat. The square block with it's sharp corners was handy to reference from too.
