| Incline board
I see a lot of posts where folks are using an incline board to test their set-up. What is an incline board and how do I go about making one? |

Here's a large one I made a while back, sander belts not installed yet. This is adjustable from 45 to 72 degrees: Video of it in use: All you really need is a piece of plywood, some sandpaper, an angle guage, and a wall to lean it on. Last edited by gunnar; 06-19-2010 at 10:19 AM. |

Whoa, that's intense. It looks like I could make an entry level version with a piece of plywood or MDF leaned against the wall. Are the sanding belts to add traction? Could I just use sheets of sandpaper glued down with some 3M spray adhesive? |

| I built that so two rigs could use it at the same time. Yea, you could glue the paper to the board, or use a heavy duty staple gun. I would get some rough paper, 80 grit works ok, that is what is on my board.

Cool. That looks like a pretty good weekend project. Now to see if I saved any plywood scraps from my last house project. |

I took a four foot long peice of 1x12" pine and used spray adhesive to glue four peices of 60 grit sandpaper to it, works great.
