Roller is not metal but rubber so the belts will last longer. My only issue is there are no holes for mounting - that's 4stars. Got this for a family member and he really likes it. The belts are easy to change and available on line. After some research, I decided to give it a try.
The Chicago Electric 92158 was our preferred 1/2 Inch Belt Finger Sanders. That being said, there were a handful of other very premium quality 1/2 Inch Belt Finger Sanders worth showcasing here that just barely fell short.
Max Value Hardware is an additional major manufacturer of Finger Sanders. They make the tool next up on our lineup. Max Value Hardware's Finger Sanders are among their premier products. It was great to try out the Heavy Duty Bandfile. I was very happy with this tool!
The Max Value Hardware Heavy Duty Bandfile Finger Sander, at $44.50 is an especially great Finger Sander for the price. If you uncertain about our number one pick, I'd look into the Max Value Hardware Heavy Duty Bandfile next. It's a first class tool at a good price.
