Good call using the faceplate ring to mount the disk to the lathe.

[@TheGarageEngineer]

First time I pulled it out of the box. Thanks for watching.

Years ago I used a cheap disk/ belt sander like yours to sand 2 inch thick seat bottoms. Surprised I could do a fairly heavy duty task on that little machine. But I did eventually buy a 12 inch disk sander.

[@TheGarageEngineer]

12 inch is on my wish list. But this will do for now. Thanks for watching.
