Review on 1/2 HP Single Phase Oscillating Spindle Sander By Shop Fox W1831 by Jeremy Levendusky

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Iron table top is the worst I've ever seen

while the packaging was good Initially I thought I received used equipment.Black smudges all over the not quite white cabinet. The sanding drum sleeves are poor quality seperated and unusable. But the iron table is the biggest disappointment rusty and pitted and not true with one edge falling out about 16th of an inch in a 5 x 1 area.There isn't a lot of undertable real estate so attaching a fence jig or guide is unlikely.Since I was forced to immediately order sanding drums I spent 2 hours cleaning the surface. I've already spent more time on maintenance on this thing than all of my other equipment combined this year. With any luck I may even use the machine this week. Although I probably should have returned it.
