Craftsman 9" disk / 6" belt sander. The belt never did track quite
straight -- even the tiniest tweak to the tracking adjustment would send
the belt skidding off to one side or the other, and it took only a few
seconds for it to cut completely through the *plastic* dust-collection
port when it did. Plus it was noisy as hell.

Kind of funny... my brother has that same machine and it's been nothing but
trouble, but I bought the same machine at Harbor Fright on sale for 1/2 the cost
of his Crapman WITH a stand and it's been a great work horse for almost 5 years
now...
