Shop Fox W1676

For sale Shop Fox W1676 6-Inch by 10-Inch Combination Sander Very nice machine..By KRASSELI had originally purchased the Jet 707597K (separate review) but had to return it and replaced it with the Shop Fox G4790. This is a nice machine. Not quite the fit and finish of the Jet, but very nice regardless. It has a smaller footprint than the Jet and sits a little lower, unless you mount it on a mobile base. I passed on the mobile base offered with the machine, because it increased the footprint so much. This is one of the few machines in my shop not mounted on wheels. It has it's designated corner and probably will remain there. If I do need to make it mobile I will mount some Grizzly 3" locking casters to the base, keeping the footprint small.I have run hose from the two 2" dust ports to a Y fitting that has a 4" connector, this seems to work very well. Very little dust escapes and what does my ceiling mounted air filter handles easily.What I really like about this machine is that you are able to remove the end guard from the belt, stand the belt sander up ... » More Information about Shop Fox W1676 6-Inch by 10-Inch Combination Sander.
