How to make your own sanding machine! [many pics] update

[Kasper]

Another day, another idea

lets make a cheap low torque sanding machine for sanding watches!

first let's do some shopping : IKEA cheap electronic rechargable screwdriver 10 euro's.



then Brico, gamma, wall mart etc for a bosch sanding extension : 20 euro




then we take the smallest 5 sided bit out of the ikea rack. It's +- 5 mm thick, so we have to drill a whole of 5 mm in the bosch metal screw. Use some oil when you drill.




then we take 2 component glue to be sure that the connection is strong..leave it for one day



let rock and roll now....our low cost, low torque sanding machine




thx all for viewing and start sanding now
