Detailed Description
Luthier's Friend Sanding Station
The Luthier's Friend Precision Sander is a one stop sanding station and thickness
sander designed to meet the demands of anyone requiring precision. Luthiers,
woodworkers, model makers, instrument makers, knife makers, bow makers, boat
builders, home shop owners, and architectural modelers will all find it useful.
You can thickness wood to precisely down to 0.010", make duplicate parts using
templates, and shape complex parts freehand. Cobnnect the built-in dust port
to your shop vac for clean sanding.
The Luthier's Friend mounts to your drill press table. After a few adjustments,
you're ready to go. Lock the fence in position and sand your material to a rough
dimension. Then, remove a few thousandths of an inch by turning the spring loaded
micro-adjust knob and running the part through again.
The bearing on the bottom of Robo-Sander sanding drum can be used in three
different ways.
- When the Robo-Sander sanding drum is locked in the full down position, the guide
wheel becomes a lower bearing, ensuring the stability needed for accurate thickness
sanding.
- In the up position, use the guide bearing to duplicate parts from a template or
even an old part as a pattern.
- Lower the flush trim bearing into the table and you have a very stable sanding
drum with which you can quickly freehand complex shapes.
When you are not using the Luthier's Friend, hang it on the wall and use the drill
press as you normally would.
Includes
- 10" x 12" laminated base with a micro-adjustable fence
- Robo-Sander 2" diameter by 3" long sanding drum
- 3 sanding sleeves to fit the drum - 1 each of 50 grit, 80 grit and 120 grit.
Maloof-inspired rocker instructor Charles Brock also recommends it as an economical
alternative for sanding the rocker laminations before gluing up.
Drill press is not included.
