Get super-smooth, swirl-free sanding results on the most troublesome edges and surfaces with the remarkable Shopsmith Conical Sanding Disc

Shopsmith Tools in Action Precision Sanding with the Conical Sander SS101 Thickness Sanding with the Conical Disc SS114

• Joint highly figured woods without tearing or chipping
• Produce glue-quality edges on sheet goods
• Shave end grains to length with glass-smooth results
• Achieve precision-ground sharpening results on Planer & Jointer Knives

This amazing, strange-looking Disc will help you produce astonishing sanding results on workpiece surfaces and edges up to 4” wide. There’s nothing else like it !

Here’s how it works
The heavy steel disc is made with a precise 40 tapered, cone-like shape. When using it, your MARK Vs Work Table is tilted to that same 40 angle and your Rip Fence or Miter Gauge is used as a guide to keep the stock moving in a straight line.

As the stock moves past the Disc, a narrow band (less than 1/4” wide) is created where the full workpiece edge (up to 4” tall) is in contact with the abrasives.

Within this band, all of the abrasive materials and the workpiece edge move parallel with one another, and in opposing directions. This is straight-line abrasion in its purest sense. No wonder there are no swirl marks. It’s almost like MAGIC !

Achieve a glass-smooth, glue quality finish on the most
difficult edges
No edge is too uneven or tough. Unlike your Jointer, the Conical Disc will shave the edges of highly figured birdseye or BURL woods without tearing or chipping. Where materials such as plywoods, particleboards, MDF and plastic laminate-covered composites will eat-up Jointer Knives, they’re no problem whatsoever for the Conical Disc !

Remove up to 1/8” in a single pass !
Where a 1/8” Jointer pass across of composites and highly figured woods is almost certain to produce undesirable results, this is NOT the case with our Conical Sanding Disc ! For proof, just grab a 2” x 2” piece of figured wood or composite material...make your set-up for a 1/8” pass according to your Disc Manual…follow all operational and safety instructions and shove it through. You’ll be absolutely amazed !
