That has to be the smallest plane in the world

Looks like one hell of a set up ! looks like the new Norbs !

I have a smaller one it's about 1.5cm wide by about 3-4 long. Use it to fine tune the concaving. Really good. Takes some time but good control.

[Red Ink Cricket]

thanks mate, just finishing it off tonight hopefully. needs a few final adjustments as its about an oz heavier than i want it. thats if i can adjust it without ruining the shape/ balance. bit of sanding,binding and polishing and we are away. pming you back as we speak

You mean the drum sander?

[Simmy]

just looks like a motor with a sanding drum on then a buffer wheel on

it is simmy,

motor with a drill chuck spindle in. then just change the sanding drum and the polishing wheel depending what i need at the time. saves alot of space and works a treat

Anoter question about your sander, how would you go about setting that up? I want to start refurbing my bats FOC, and doing it by hand is quite frankly a ball ache

 i get a fair few questions about my set up so i just thought id update this topic to see how far its come since its start. Plenty of new additions to the workshop. the workshop could do with a bit of a tidy but its not too bad. enjoy!
