Matt,
Ah so you didn't get an angle grinder with a sanding disc attached, like Jack was suggesting:U.
Firstly well done on your aquasition, those 30" discs are monsters!! Secondly, thank you so much for thinking about me, and what I was seeking, unfortunately I had to make some decisions and one of them was to trade off the JTA (I just couldn't justify the real estate or the need for such a large disc). Henry, who as you know is a retired pattern maker, swapped me his early JY bobbin sander and a spare table with dust extraction port for the JTA (a good swap for both of us I think, and the machine I was seeking in the first place, so I got there in the end). I also now have an Australian made L.S. Barker double disc 18" sander.
I've just jumped over to the Canadian site and seen you have posted about the JTA, looks very complete.
Cheers,
Camo
P.S. Vann, that's a bit extreme...lol.
