JET has always been known for its oscillating sanders. So, if you’re a fan of its work, you might want to consider what I am about to show you.
The new JET 120V 4-Amp Oscillating Edge/Spindle Sander is basically two sanders in one. It handles straight edges and flat surfaces, then flips to curves and tight spots without making you clear more bench space.
I’m always a fan of a tool that can earn its stripes on the workbench. This one does exactly that.
Two Sanding Jobs, One Machine
JET’s dual sanding design is the main attraction. Use the edge-sanding side for longer, flatter workpieces, or move to the spindle when you need to smooth an inside curve or rounded cut.
The oscillating action keeps things cool and spreads out the wear, so you get a smoother finish and your sanding sleeves don’t tap out early.
The quick-change spindle system also makes switching between sanding diameters less of a production. There isn’t a single person on Earth who wants to spend 10 minutes adjusting a machine for a sanding job that takes two.
