Desktop Sander / Burnisher

[LomaeArts]

Some of the youtubers we follow have neat toys to make processors better/quicker.
One such item I drool over in the Campbell Randell Variable Speed Burning Machine.  Chances of getting one in Australia are pretty minimal and if it was available, I would probably be hit with a 50% export Tariff ;).

So I after some time on my CAD I came up with these.

• The sanding wheel is 89mm diameter and has a small flat area so the sand paper has a slight overlap and you don't feel a bump.  I choose the diameter to suit strips cut from an standard sheet of wet and dry sand paper.  Currently I am testing 180 grit and am extremely satisfied.
• The Dust collector is NOT my work.  I blended a vaccy adaptor on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2806410) to suit my needs.
• The burnisher works well.

These are all printed in PETG and time will tell if the stand up to abuse.

Both the sander and burnisher are driven by 1/2hp 3 phase motors with VFD to control speed.

When I get this mounted in their (yet to be designed frames) I will share moer details.

As always I am very open to comments and observations.
