The Strip Sander is on often forgotten, value-priced workshop addition that will save you countless hours of tedious work sanding or grinding intricate external or internal shapes. In addition, it's also a fabulous choice for polishing or sharpening chisels and other edged shop and garden tools.

What you'll do with your new Shopsmith Strip Sander
The narrow belt (1" or 1/2") Strip Sandier will give you the same kinds of work-saving convenience you're accustomed to with full-sized Belt Sanders...just on a smaller scale. You'll use it to make easy work of intricate sanding, grinding and sharpening jobs such as:

  • Smoothing the external edges of small craft, model or delicate miniature projects. It's the perfect companion for your Bandsaw or Scroll Saw.
  • Using its unique Belt re-thread capability to sand or grind the intricate internal cut-outs on all types of projects.
  • Grinding metal objects or shaping plastic parts.
  • Sharpening lawn and garden tools.
  • Putting a keen cutting edge on bevel-edged or turning chisels using our optional Chisel-Sharpening Attachment

You'll find a full range of available belts from 50-grit to 600-grit - and either 1" or 1/2" widths. There's virtually no small-scale job your Shopsmith Strip Sander can't tackle.

Loaded with work-saving results-enhancing benefits and accessories

As with all Shopsmith Special Purpose Tools, your Strip Sander offers a number of great features and accessories to help you make everything you make - better.

MARK V or Stand Mount -- Every Shopsmith Special Purpose Tool offers the option of mounting and powering it with your Shopsmith MARK V - or with its own, individual, motorized Stand.

Oversized Tilting Table -- Large 11" x 11" die cast aluminum Table tilts from "0" to 45 for accurate beveling or sharpening jobs. Generous size provides plenty of support for your most critical jobs.

Interchangeable Flat and Curved Platens -- You'll get three interchangeable Platens to support the Belt during straight or curved sanding or grinding jobs. Choose from 1" or 1/2" wide Flat Platens or the 1/2" radius Curved Platen. You can also remove the Platen completely for unsupported light sanding of delicate workpieces.

Exposed Upper Tracking Wheel -- Perfect for sanding the flowing external curves of valances, decorative trim and similar projects.

Simple Tracking Adjustments and Automatic Belt Tensioning -- A quick twist of the single Tracking Knob keeps the Belt running straight and true...while the spring-loaded Tracking Wheel automatically keeps the Belt on-track, without fiddling.

Built-in Dust Collection Port -- Just connect the hose from your Shopsmith Dust Collector to the Port and go to work, as the sanding/grinding is trapped before it can spread throughout the shop.
