He says it really saves his arms and elbows a lot of stress and sands the cars nice and smooth without any hand sanding. I gave this product to my husband for his birthday. He makes wooden toys, and he loves the sander.
I used it for a constant 1 1/2 hours the other day without shutting it off. Taken care of with some glue though. Works Great, Didn't miss a beat. I bought this Wilton (99179)Oscillating Spindle Sander on 09/28/08 and its been a great sander so far. The only issue I have with it, is when I pulled it out of the box the table top was peeling up a little bit.
But I bought it in August 2008 and I personally think even a cheap sander should work for at least a few months instead of the 4 months I've had it. We'll see what develops. It will spin with the best of them, but the oscillating portion of the machine disappeared. Anyway, no more Wilton products, I'll work out something to buy their high end products, Jet. Save up and buy a quality machine. Bought this sander for home workshop.
In less than one hour of operating time, poof. The Amazon return window closed per rules, and that's ok. Very light use, just handy to have so I bought one. I've sent an inquiry in to Wilton warranty folks. I have a great appreciation of Jet and their customer service. Didn't want to spend an arm and a leg to have a handy little gizmo.
Pretty much eliminates the allure of an oscillating sander.Learned my lesson.
Recommend highly. I purchased this in March 2007 and I have been very happy with its performance. It is relatively quiet, sands efficiently, and has a good dust collection system.
I recommended it to several friends who bought it, and they all liked it. You can install an external rheostat to regulate speed. For light use, it is a great deal. It does the job and has all the basic elements of a good spindle sander.
