That's all I can ask at this price point. Did not power on when it arrived. Sand here, sand there, sand everywhere. Dust collection is very effective. I am just making knife handles now.

The WEN 6510T was really our favorite Benchtop Spindle Sanders. However, there were a few other really premium Benchtop Spindle Sanders we wanted to show you here that barely missed the mark.

Shop Fox is another top maker of Spindle Sanders. They produce the tool that is next on our rundown. Shop Fox's Spindle Sanders are one of their premier tools. I was excited to try the model W1831 and I was not disappointed!

The Shop Fox W1831 Spindle Sander, at $163.28 is an especially excellent Spindle Sander for the price. If you not sure about our number one choice, I'd check out the Shop Fox W1831 next. It's a first class tool at a good price.

Apart from the tools we reviewed above, I would evaluate the 6524 by WEN and the 708404 by Jet. Both WEN and Jet are considered a couple of the premier producers of premium Spindle Sanders. both of these particular tools received fantastic buyer ratings also. Users awarded the WEN an average rating of 4.1/5 stars. Compare that to the 708404 that boasts an average score of 3.6/5 stars.

The 6524 by WEN has a few features you might not get on other similar Spindle Sanders. One example is Features 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, 1 inch, 1-1/2 inch and 2 inch sanding drum sizes and one 4 x 24 inch belt. The Jet 708404 although, is very competitive featuring Power Tools and Accessories and even Country of manufacture: Taiwan.

Each of these couple options are an excellent option if you're shopping for Benchtop Spindle Sanders

That's all I can ask at this price point. It is a compact unit with BIG features. It is my go-to sander for jobs both big and small. If you have the time, works on large jobs. Wish I would have bought this long ago.

No damage, packaging can improve. It's a nice sander for the small shop. With a coat of paste wax, it's smooth. Dust collection is very effective. Like one other reviewer mine was packed upside down.

I bought this and the Grizzly 9 inch band saw. It's a nice sander for the small shop. I removed the link to help reduce confusion. Great customer service from Grizzly. Had to go out and purchase a 30 MM and a 1 1/4 wrench.
