| That sounds halarious. Never heard of it done for real, just remember kids getting sent to the office in High school for riding them arcoss the tables (then they had to use them to sand the tops of all the work tables smooth). Would be cool to see some pics/video though. |

| I've actually heard of it... but can't remember where. I think the worm drives are the prefered style. Did you do a search for it? Took me a couple seconds to find these: http://www.nebsra.org/ http://www.corunna4th.org/julybeltsander.html http://www.metafilter.com/48999/Belt-Sander-Racing |
