ri702bill 12,501 #6 Posted 55 minutes ago (edited) Mount it on the workbench with a foot switch. Near the Band-Aid dispenser & eye wash..... The belt guard looks to be a mite short! Edited 53 minutes ago by ri702bill 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 20,226 #8 Posted 34 minutes ago Curious, why wouldn't it be easier and make more sense to turn the motor 180 instead of the figure 8 on the belt? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
