2. Grizzly G1079R Drum Sander

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 Grizzly Industrial G0775 was the 2 HP Motor Sanders that we rated at the top. That doesn't mean there aren't several other really great alternatives when it comes down to 2 HP Motor Sanders. We have them for you here.

Grizzly is an additional top producer of Sanders. They build the tool that is next on our list. Grizzly's Drum Sanders are also top quality. I was excited to try out the model G1079R and I was not disappointed!

This Drum Sander is only $1460.00. That is a terrific deal for a quality Sander like the G1079R by Grizzly. If you unsure about our number one choice, I'd look into the Grizzly G1079R next. It's a premium quality tool at a terrific price.

3. Powermatic 1791292K Disc & Belt Sander

  • (3 Points)

This means that they did not correctly prep the metal. The disc sander housing was very rough and chipped. But the sander is cheap, so I didn't expect much. While the product was what I expected for the price. You will not go wrong with the Powermatic belt sander.
