    Spindle Sander Refurb Complete!!!!

    A Spindle Sander is reborn. For those who missed my earlier posts, I picked up an old Max spindle sander on Ebay. I haven't been able to discern the date of manufacture yet but the serial number makes it 1980 or newer, so at the oldest it is nearly 30 years old. It was made in USA by Max...

    Spindle Sander rebuild - Update #1

    I was able to disassemble the spindle mechanism down to just the spindle socket with its seized spindle which made it much easier to take to a local machine shop. For $25 he heated it up nice and hot and put a REALLY BIG WRENCH on it and successfully separated the two parts!!!! Spindle socket...

    Spindle Sander is home

    I picked up the new (old) spindle sander I won on Ebay, in Wilmington on Tuesday, but since it has been raining here ever since, it sat in my garage for the last three days. I finally hoisted it up to my shop earlier this evening. The machine is a Max OVS-1 oscillating spindle sander. The...

    Spindle sander question

    I am considering getting a spindle sander. I figure it would probably be a lot better that using my drill press (I have to keep re-securing the chuck!). What does everyone (anyone?) think of the Ridgid spindle sander. It seems that the belt attachment would be a handy feature.

    Cutting and drying spindle blanks

    I picked up some maple logs cut to firewood length. In the course of a day or few (not sure when they were cut) unsealed, they each had exactly one small crack form in the center. I drove a wedge in the crack and split each one and some I split a second or third time if there was some hint of...

    Bosch takes care of their customers

    In my on-going saga of issues with the Bosch Colt I have received nothing but excellent customer service from them. Originally I had the spindle lock button strip out and with some sage advice found here I contacted Bosch and a spindle wrench showed up at my door Thread. Well then the spindle...

Think it will work? Any...

    Small Sorby Spindle Master gloat

    Here 'tis: I think this will be a good choice for turning tuning pins and end pins; better than my full length 1/2" skew, though the skew is still my weapon of choice for initial rounding. Attempts at beads improved from awful to reasonably okay within a couple of minutes. Sharpening it...

    Turning a straight spindle???

    How do y'all go about it? I was turning some ¾" dowels today, about 9-12" long. Started with square stock, rounded with a roughing gouge. Parted down to the desired diameter at both ends. Then finished turned to size with a 1" skew. They looked straight, but after sanding I realized that I had...

    More refinishing spindle leg tips.....

    Yet another tip. History, stripped and refinishing a drop leaf table for the LOML. Prob? 6 legs and 8 stretchers, all turned. Beads, coves, the whole nine yards. The stripper did a good job, but ever try to sand spindles off the lathe..... A FREAK'N NIGHTMARE. In the end, here is...
