Drum sanders any good?
In my shop, I have just about everything I need, but a drum sander. Can't
afford a wide belt. Many of the reviews that I can find on these are not encouraging. Anyone have positive experiences with drum sanders in $1000 dollar range?" It looks like the Performax brand is now marketed under Jet. If so, is it the same quality that was manufactured by Performax? -- Frank Howell |

I dont like the the result when I use 60 or 80 grit and try to take off alot. But for finsh snading its great. Randy http://nokeswoodworks.com |

It works great but you must realize that it has its limitations. It will rethickness wood except about 5-10 times slower than the typical thickness planer. I like to use mine to smooth a surface and or sneak up on a precise thickness. You must use dust collection. The larger 22" model Performax and "probably" the Jet have a feed speed regulator. If you are feeding too fast it will automatically slow doe to a more acceptable rate. This is a nice feature that probably has helped to prevent stalls. Buy your paper in bulk rolls for about 1/3 the price of precut rolls. |

Anyone have positive experiences with drum sanders in $1000 dollar range?" I have an 18 X 36 Delta and it has really improved the speed and quality of my panel sanding. Us it to clean up any glue up mismatch, get to a flat panel, then go to the ROS for finish. However, if you don't have dust collection you need to be able to take it outside (what I do). It makes a lot of dust. It looks like the Performax brand is now marketed under Jet. If so, is it the same quality that was manufactured by Performax? Performax was made in a US factory in Minnesota. WHM after purchasing Performax,closed that facility, moved it to the far east and eventually rebadged the brand to JET. It would be good to get opinions from anyone who has used both versions. I have not. Of course, my 18 x 36 was also made in the US and now it comes from the far east. Frank |

Anyone have positive experiences with drum sanders in $1000 dollar range?" I have been very happy with my Performax 22/44. I've also read some of those reviews. The main I idea I saw is that some of the folks expected the tool to require less operator skill than it does. Some of the much more expensive tools probably don't require much skill, but... Random thoughts: - The sander is a finesse tool, it is not a thickness planer. Forcing too heavy of a cut, too heavy of a cut with too fine a grit, failing to properly guide it in or out, etc... May do as much damage as a router mistake. 8^( - I've sanded parts as large as 40" x 86" x 5/4 (a QSWO table top) and a small as 3" x 3" x 1/8" (walnut panels). The table top required two people, but with 15 seconds of adjustment, turned out great. - I now use the sander on every part that won't be hand planed, as well as some that will, as they come out of the thickness planer. I can stop thickness planing a pass early and easily have tearout-free stock ready for a single ROS pass for trim, or suitable smooth plane or scraper for furniture. - I've run 100's of feet of s4s red oak trim through it at 120 grit, followed by a fast ROS pass, directly to a finish, with great results. - It needs a good dust collector. I wouldn't even consider using one without at least a 1200 CFM DC and unrestrictive ductwork. - I don't like the optional in/outfeed tables. I got tired of futzing with them and simply developed operator techniques to get great results. I only bother to install the tables when doing long boards, simply as a place to rest one end as I maneuver the board into place on the belt. - Changing and replacing paper is easy after you do it once or twice, there is a special tool that makes it easier. My sander included the tool, but I don't think older or smaller models do the same. My sander is on my short list of tools I'd replace in a minute if it died tomorrow. It looks like the Performax brand is now marketed under Jet. If so, is it the same quality that was manufactured by Performax? I have no idea, but Performax was a WMH (Jet's parent) when I bought my 22/44. |

I have not. I have the US version, badged Performax, and have looked at the JET badge. Fit and finish are somewhat less, but I really didn't see obvious crummies, though I haven't had the best experience with Chinese motors. |

The easiest way to tell on these models if they have an automatic speed regulator is to look for a small Red LED light on the control box close to the speed regulator switch. When the load is too much the speed regulator slows down and the red light comes on. |

I have the 16" Performax and use my Sears shop vacuum for dust collection. Works much better than I thought it would. Very little visible crud. An air filter picks up the rest of the airborne stuff. mahalo, jo4hn |

Actually yes they all have speed control, IIRC not all have "automatic" speed control, in case you have set the speed control to fast. I use a Jet Pleated Element 1100 CFM dust collector. Dust is simply not an issue when using the 22" drum sander or my 15" stationary planer. None, zip. |

At least it did when I bought my 16-32 around 11 years ago. It isn't automatic though...I usually set it somewhere between 50% and 80% depending on what I am sanding (how wide, how hard). A decent place for abrasive rolls is http://www.econabrasives.com/index.mv?Screen=SFNT As far as the sander goes, I wouldn't be without it. And get one where the drum moves up and down (like Performax) not the table. Reason? So you can build on some in/out rollers that will stay even with the table...you need them for anything long or heavy. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

BUT! having said that, it is invaluable for insuring small assemblies are of uniform height. Back in December I was building 2 jewelry chests that had 24 drawers IIRC. To tweak for the perfect height spacing and fit I ran the drawer assemblies in pairs to get exactly what I wanted, height wise. I am finding more to do with the sander than the typical flattening or sanding of a wide surface. |

Drum sanders any good?
I have owned a few and used many.
1. I agree I find a drum or wide belt sander indispensible. One of the few tools used on every project. 2. You can tune in the open ended versions and they are way better then not having anything but I would much rather buy a used standard drum then a new open ended one. Used can be found. I recently purchased an older performax double drum sander, 25" I think. It is in storage right now but I think it was less than $1000, but I'd need to look in my records to be sure.

Last time I had some stuff sanded, a contractor was there with a pick-up full of face frames for a cabinet job. A couple of passes thru that 48" wide, 3 drum sander with a 25HP dust collector took care of the job. Contractor estimated he saved at least a half day's sanding. Lew |

Of course, that doesn't include operating costs, but my guess is that somewhere between 40 and 50 jobs would still be break-even. |

This piece of commercial equipment has been fully depreciated for years. Motor nameplates indicate 68-69 construction. Unit has three (3), 25HP motors, each driving an individual drum.thru the old VariDrive, the mechanical variable speed drive from US Motors. Another 25HP motor drives the dust collector which has it's own bag house. Now you know why it's $26 to turn the machine on. 100HP demands a lot of inrush current to get started. My guess is that today, it would cost well in excess of $100K to replace it. A home shop unit is not from the same gene pool, not even close. Lew |

I bought and eventually sold a 16\32 Ryobi. It was OK. The main hed
adjustment screws were a bit inconsistent. The design in general is a bit problematic because you are always lowering the head with each pass but for a real accurate offset it should be raisng (against gravity). Inexplicably my unit would work fine with a 1/4 turn drop on each pass and then suddenly a 1/4 turn would drop the head so far it would gouge the material and killed the unit. It would take 6 or 8 more passes to sand out the gouge. I eventually found that I'd drop it a full turn and then back up 3/4 and it seemed to fix the issue. I also heard the Ryobi was sued into submission by Performax and had to stop production because of infringement. The units look almost identical, right down to the belt tracking adjustment mechanism.
