Thought I'd post this picture and thank Doug Campbell in public for the gift he sent my way.

I was shopping for a belt grinder and call Doug for a little advise on what was good for a entry level belt sander. He sent me his old one with some advise on what would make it better. I added a moter and a step pully to give it some slowdown.
I have to get to town for some parts to wire the switch in and plan to add a disk sander to the end of the arbor in the future.
Thanks a bunch Doug. Can't wait to grind the first one. RS

That is an awesome gift.

Good deal. I like seeing stuff like this.  

yeah Mr.campbell is spl. that should worjk great. I have one just like that. I paid 400.00 for it shipped. 2 x 58" I think? It worked great.
Congrats buddy<><

I'm hoping all the training Doug did on this one sticks with it. If I hold a good peice of steel up to it maybe it will just shape it for me    

My luck, it will be just like a horse though.
They always rise or fall to the level of the rider  :D

Great folks around here!!!!
Can't wait to see what ya turn out with it.      

Doug is a great guy with a big heart!!! We need lots more like him in this world. He inspires me to be a better person.
