Makita 9741 Wheel Sander

Product Information

This operation requires more pressure and a little more time than cleaning, but not that much more, as I discovered. From your response it seems you have not had a lot of experience with quality brushes running low rpm with proper pressure.

The tactile differences between the nylon and wire brushed surfaces aren't really picked up by the camera, but when you run your hand over the board the wire brushed sections are definitely not as smooth. The Victory machine is easy to adjust in height, speed and pressure whether it is done manually or through PLC. The machine requires surprisingly little pressure during operation however to be effective, and I didn't find myself needing to press anywhere close to the limit set by the roller.

The rear handle is tilted so it can put my wrist at an awkward angle, but this leaves an option to hold the handle at the back like a hand saw. I used the standard 100 grit nylon brush to clean reclaimed boards and it did a great job of removing the dirt. The trick I learned for this application is to pull the tool slowly backwards towards you rather than pushing it forward or running it back and forth. Additionally, you should consider the speed and pressure of the brushes, as well as the type of abrasive material used. I purchased the additional 80 grit brush, because I also wanted to test out its capabilities texturing wood, which is the only other task it does besides cleaning timber.

A 3D brush sander works by rotating a series of abrasive nylon brushes against the surface of the wood. I need them to get down into the grooves and cracks, removing the years of gunk built up from farm activity and weather. that preplanning the cuts is worth it, such that you aim to have the glue joint run along the rift grain on both the boards being joined.

A comprehensive range of sanding, denibbing and structuring machines sourced from specialist producers are available. Messages and responses that are crafted in a professional and civil manner strengthen this resource. When I see the bigger kitchen manufactures replacing the Quickwoods and Fladders on the numerous sanding/finishing lines they have with the Robo Tech machines, I tend to take notice.I do not like this as much, as dust flies around inside the machine and has to change directions and to go out the other side.
