First Impressions

"Flawless performance."

Tonight the Idler Roller started making noise. I havent had any issues whatsoever about the power of the Shop Fox. For an around the shop grinder for a hobbyist metal worker. For some, this cannot work and must be pointed out. sander is doing fine, lot power sands well on metal and wood.

Shop Fox W1838 Final Thoughts

"All in all a nice unit."

Tonight the Idler Roller started making noise. One interesting observation is the disc spins clockwise. I had another model before this and there was no comparison. While the product was what I expected for the price. There is one on each side and they do a lot to reduce noise.

Overall Score 3.2

(3 Points)
