BUCKTOOL 5.0A Belt Disc Sander 4 in x 36 in Belt and 6 in Disc Sander with 3/4HP Direct-drive Motor and Portable Al Base, BD4603 Upgraded Model

all good

Great belt sander for amateur builders. Easy to put the attachments on. And easy to adjust. Switching belts was also pretty straight forward. The dial to adjust the belt position makes it simple to keep the belt alignment. I would rate this 5* as it is a workhorse but if I spent more money I would have expected some refinements. Overall happy with the products. Cons. The adjustable tables don’t always stay at the set degree. So I’ve had to make sure they were in the right position multiple times throughout my sanding project. Sadly this messed up 2 pieces I was working on. So now I check to make sure the angle is where I need it. Also don’t trust the guides. They are just screwed on, and move around. The dust collection is a little awkward but not sure what else could be done.

Great power for its size. 5 Amps I believe. I replaced a smaller, 2.4 Amp belt/disk sander, that just didn't have enough power to do the job; but I didn't want a full size 6" belt/disk sander. This is the perfect size, has a small footprint, runs fairly quiet and has a decent amount of power. Very happy with it and would recommend it. This is the second BUCKTOOL I have purchased. I LOVE their quality. I also have one of their grinders. That tool is incredibly quiet, balanced and does not vibrate and dance around. Great tools!

Just rec'd my new Bucktool Belt Disc Sander. It was packaged well and delivered on time. I've only had a brief time to play with this new tool but it appears to be well built. The direct drive feature is why I selected this sander, so I don't have to deal with broken belts, etc. Set up was simple. It has guide fences for both the belt and disc so you can adjust the sanding angles up to 45 degrees. They are light duty and won't withstand a lot of pressure or force but for light work that I will be doing its acceptable. The packaging says 5.0 amp, 3/4hp which doesn't exactly make sense. 5.0 amp is more closely related to 1/3hp, but it seems to have plenty of power. Can't wait to put it to work.

Belle machine. Style commercial non hobby

Shopped around a lot for one of these. I use them in my shop for cutting board sides. For the money I am very impressed. Build quality and appearance are very solid and old school. Power is very good. Only critique I have is the belt bend angle adjustment is not as easy as others. I would give this a strong 4/5. Buy it
