  • Today, I get to take advantage of a solution that was offered to me by a major power tool manufacturer, to rectify a problem with their machine.

    Those hydraulic cylinders are available at auto part stores.

      Thank you for the heads up. I searched Online and found that I was spending way more time on the search than I should, so I gave up. It's good to know I can walk into a store and buy them. Just have to make sure all of the measurements and specs are right.

      I bought the infeed and outfeed tables with the unit, which I purchased from Johnson's Workbench in South Bend, Indiana. That's the area I live in, and no other retailers around here carry those types of tools. Are you having trouble finding the accessories for your sander?

      @@godisgoodwoodworks4801 thank you for replying. I was just trying to find them on line. But I’ll call the place I bought it from and ask them. I’m sure they can get them. I just went and picked it up today and got it all set up.

      @@michaelsfabwork2985 I agree... you can probably get them from your original seller. It's a great sander if you take the time to dial it in. I will say that since that cylinder failed on my first one, I'm a bit gun shy about using the rapid height adjustment feature now. I just turn the crank until I get my desired thickness setting. It's really not that big a deal. If you want to use the rapid adjust feature, don't leave it set to "Quick" after you get it set. That will take the pressure off of the cylinder. My opinion is that the cylinder is undersized for the weight that it has to assist with.

    How old is your drum sander?

      It was replaced with a new one at the time I posted this video, and that was in late June of this year. The one that suffered the failed part was only a little over a year old.
