Unique Features of the "Flat Master" Surface Sander |
|
| |
1. No clips needed for holding paper. VELCRO brand hook and loop is used for changing paper - simply unroll one grit and roll on another.
|
|
| 2. On the longer drums use two or three different grits at once. |
| 3. Klingspor brand stearate coated paper will sand pine, paint and even nails without damaging the sandpaper, a savings to the user. |
| 4. Sandpaper used on the Flat Master is less costly than the clothback paper used for commercial units. |
| 5. The drum is a polycarbonate tubing which runs cooler and eliminates static. With no static on the drum, dust won't stick to the paper. Instead it drops down into the box, allowing for easier dust collection. Just add a 4" dust collector flange to the frame and the Flat Master is vitually dust free! |
| 6. With the use of the fences and hold downs, the sander works much like a jointer. It also works excellent with sanding longer pieces. |
| 7. Centrifugal force is a key element. Firstly it lifts paper off the drum creating an air gap. The air gap prevents the drum from creating heat, which in turn helps paper to last longer. Secondly, centrifugal force means it takes less power to run the Flat Master as the drum is not forcing the paper into the wood. |
| 8. Depth of cut is changed by switching the grit of sandpaper. If you want to cut more use a coarser grit, but to cut less, use a finer grit, etc. |
| 9. The height of the drum is crucial for this sander to work properly. With the assistance of the "simple height adjustment" system, adjusting the height is now simple. |
| 10. Moving the fences is a breeze with the new table top clamp system. |
