Some of the worst power tools only make the guarantee year if you hardly use them. My Aldi belt grinder overheats after 10 minutes or so. Hope it's not a rebadged red devil. And that is in no way ancient tech. Any ancient tool that still survives should run for many years yet if you can tolerate its limitations. If you're hard up enough to want to buy junk, why not make a belt sander from wood scrap. NT |

Yup, many low end belt sanders are really quite astonishingly bad... Many suffer with mechanical components made from plastic that really ought to be metal, so you can't get the belt to track properly when new, and not at all once its more than a few months old. I've not met any that bad. The Aldi's had a middling amount of use, just needs 10 mins to cool off every 10 mins, so I now also have better ones. In that case the op probably shouldn't buy anything at a distance without getting to see one first. NT |

Corse no doubt you pay for that in the purchase price if you keep it. |
