Rikon Disc Sander 650,Wood Workshop Westfield Nj 4g,Open Hardware Journal 90 - Step 2
Since it came installed that way, I removed it to see if it had been set up misaligned. I called Rikon and they are more than willing to provide me a new disk but cannot say when that will be. After owning the sander for over a month now, and not being able to use it, frustration has gotten the better of me. Shipping an obviously defective unit to a customer and then not being able to make it right in a reasonable period of time is completely unacceptable.
I hope that everyone considering a Rikon product takes this experience of mine into consideration and opts to purchase from another manufacturer. I haven't had this but only a week but have put it through its paces. So far it has taken whatever I have thrown its way. I like making bandsaw boxes and between this and a spindle sander they save me hours compared to hand sanding.
It's not too noisey and runs smooth. You do have to do a bit of disassembly to change the sanding belt but nothing major. Instead of taking this thing apart and boxing it up for return, I removed the table and used a die-grinder with a metal cutting bit to make the slots in the brackets longer so I could Rikon Belt Disc Sander Jack slide the table close enough to the disc.
I would buy and recommend this product to others, that may change with time, if it does I will edit this review. I didn't use the base that came with it so can't say anything about it.
I have read it's very sturdy. I can say for a open base it's very heavy. The reason I noted it has a good grip is because it has two handles for lifting the machine. Find a Store. My Account. My Cart. Go to Home Page. Mobile Navigation.

Dust collection is Rikon Belt And Disc Sander 70 good with a shop vacuum attached. The miter gauge is unremarkable with no positive angle stops.
Unreliable table-tilt scale. It takes some time to remove worn abrasive discs from the cast-iron platen. More points: The table tilts on a rack and pinion gear, but the detents for common angles are so slight that we had a hard time telling when they engaged.
