Disc Sander

Disc Sanders can be used to shape the ends and edges of shapes in timber or plastics. Sanding discs are approx. 300mm dia and available in a variety of grit sizes but a fairly coarse 60 or 80 grit should be chosen for general work because the speed of the machine may quickly burn out a finer grit.


Safety Point! All workshop machines can be dangerous - do not use any machine until you have been trained to do so. Wear eye protection. Sanding dust can be harmful so avoid inhalation by providing dust extraction and/or using a face mask.
