The drum must be adjusted after initial set up. I found that it was easy to change the paper with out it. When placing a board in the machine. But light cuts worked fine, no problems. 1/8 turn just to take up the slack before moving the drum.

The fact is that the Jet 629004K was the 16 Inch Drum Sanders that we rated the highest. Even so, there were several other very high quality 16 Inch Drum Sanders we wanted to show you here that barely fell short.

The next in our tool break down is made by Grizzly known to be a very reputable tool supplier. Grizzly's Drum Sanders are no exception. It was terrific to test the G1079R. I was very happy using this tool!

The model G1079R Drum Sander by Grizzly, at $1460.00 is a particularly exceptional Sander for the price. If you uncertain about our top pick, I'd consider the Grizzly G1079R next. It's a premium quality tool at a terrific price.
