    Default Drum sander???? For end grain work

    Hey all,
    Have around $1000 to spend on a drum sander to smooth/level my end grain boards. The max width would need to be around 400mm.
    Carbatech & hare &forbes are close by so looking for some info on suitable machines from eirther supplier or elsewhere if applicable, a good second hand machine would be ok aswell.
    cheers

    I have a Carba-tec drum sander that's good for end grain, but it needs to be finished off using a ROS, as the drum sander will leave scores. Also, remove as much excess glue as possible before you use the sander.
