That's really quite impressive, Vernon! I'm new to the whole welding things and here I see that you have a home made belt sander. Now, that's just not fair.

What other projects have you worked on in the past few months? Are the pictures in your photo bucket account all from this past year? If that's the case, then kudos to you. I can't wait to see more!

Are you gonna build a guard to cover the slotted hole that the idler arm travels up and down to keep the complete morons safe? You could use the bolts so it would travel with the arm. As nice a job as you have done, OSHA would still pick on that because they can....lol. Looks great, I wish I had one like it!

A belt sander is a machine used to sand down wood and other materials for finishing purposes. It consists of an electrical motor that turns a pair of drums on which a seamless loop of sandpaper is mounted. Belt sanders have become widely used over the last number of years as the selling price has decreased. A belt sander is one of those must have tools for wood workers, do it yourselfers and skilled professionals.

I saw each picture with deep eye and i am trying to make this home after watching you but you are great i am still confuse to manage the parts in right direction and i keep all your pictures in front of my eyes and try to copy you all but still some parts are stuck and not working well.

As a woodworker for over 40 years, that's better than any sander that I've owned. A belt sander like that will probably last forever. Getting the right distance so the belt is tight, but, not too tight is an art in itself. Nice job.
