In this video I'll be building an oscillating spindle sander.

Features are:
-Table tilts to over 45 degrees.
-Table inserts!
-Toggleable oscillation with a max 45mm stroke, as well as adjustability on how far and how high it oscillates.
-Interchangable spindles (or there would be if i'd made more than one).
-Efficient dust collection.
-Flammable.
-Cost effective with equivalent sanders retailing at well over £300 new.
-Can be built with easily sourced materials and a minimum of tools (I use a lathe in the video for convenience, but anything that required accuracy was hand scraped or designed to be adjustable).

There's a CAD model of the sander available for download at this link if you want to try building it or just borrow ideas:

It opens with Google Sketchup, a free CAD program that I think is great. It's designed to be easy and intuitive to learn.

If anything isn't clear on the model or in the video post a comment and i'll try reply to you.

Also note that the model was made on a 1920x1200 pixel monitor, so things might not be framed too well on different sized monitors.

Matthias featured this on his website. There's a little bit more info on it (a few more details on the oscillating mechanism I felt I skipped over).
