Always wanted one of these sanders so I drove north about 120 miles one way to pick up a used 6"x108" belt, industrial quality sander off a young lady artist/woodworker. She moved and the sander was way too big for her new shop. I jumped on this one as they usually have 3 phase motors!! It must weigh 700 pounds! Cabinet must be made from 1/8" thick steel! Rock solid on my shop floor! Made in Toronto, Ontario by Progress. It has a 2 hp 1750 rpm single phase motor, with tons of power . The front table is missing , but I think I can easily make one up. Now I just got to sell the dark green 3 yr old Chinese 6x99 oscillating belt sander. No room to store it in my crowded shop.
