Thanks for the run down of your amazing sander. You are not only clever, but you are a doer! Respect.
That has to be the best table I have seen on youtube. You’re execution and planning are superb.
Khai, Thank you. Just what I was looking for.
this is a great design and the material thickness seems almost limitless. Great work.
I love it! Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
Parabéns!!👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
( The best project I've ever seen)
O melhor projeto que já assisti.
That is the best homemade thickness sander I have seen. Great ideas for both the table adjustment and the sprung roller system.
Thanks again. I'll be watching your videos.
Nice sander! Using the blower motor from HVAC system results in far less motor noise than a typical sander, so really nice going there too!
A big thank you for sharing from Canada!
I keep watching this video over and over. It seems like the simplest and well thought out. I plan to build one in the near future and plan to incorporate most of your methods. I especially like the feed roller mechanism and the hold down springs. I definitely want to use the four post and chain lift mechanism. Thank you so much for posting this video.
Your very welcome Joe! I would suggest using thicker all-thread for the four chain lift mechanism. I think I used 1/2 inch and it does flex and the sprocket slip sometimes when im cranking on it too hard. This could be avoided if you keep the sprocket and chain closer to the lower frame instead of the middle of the all-thread (keeps flexing to a minimum) good luck on your build!
Ótimo TRABALHO. Muito bem projetado e concretizado.
Parabéns.
Thank you, excellent design, with great care in details!!!
Simple and elegant, yet very functional. I've seen some shop made drum sanders on here that are way over complicated and over engineered and don't work well at all. Plus they're rickety and cumbersome. Well done man.
I was looking at a second hand drum sander and it's like £800 - £1000 so I'm pleased to see there is a high quality diy option thank you for sharing 👍
Muito bom.
Gostei muito de sua ideia e penso em melhorar a minha. Parabéns!
Great design of your sander. I love the velcro attachment. may of them have clips that let go or break! nice work on it!! That looks like a dishwasher motor...i have on just like it!!
Best homemade design...2 side moving rods are awesome!!!! Good Job Khai !
Awesome dude! Thank you for a idea!
Congratulations on a nice design. Well done.
Only one word to say. "Genius" Thanks.
Outstanding job , thanks for sharing .
if this idea is your own, I must to say congrajulation to you. you are the intelligent guy. thank you for shearing this brilliant idea. Mercy man....
Wow nice job! You put a lot of thought into it for sure
The best sander I've ever seen. Congrats and thank you for sharing. Ricardo, from Brazil.
Ingenious design, well though and excellent execution, well done
I'd like to compliment you on well thought out project that's not only a great one but I'm sure will be a family heirloom for years to come.
Thank you so much! for such kind words. if my kids are inherite it, I'd better get going with the safety drum shroud. ;)
Excellent design and build. One of the better ones out there on CZcams
Thanks Craig! Lots of hours put into it.
Outstanding.
+AKA Wireguy Thanks!
Very good design, just what I was looking for, thanks!
THIS IS GREAT ...... GENUIS
Very nice. One of the best setups I’ve seen
Very Nice build !
good work fella, and well worth the watch,
That is very impressive. You should be proud of yourself.
Great ingenuity!
Parabéns! O melhor projeto que já vi, vou tentar fazer um desse.
I like it. I realy like the spring idea, will use it when I build mine. Way to go!!!!!!!!!!
great job! way cool!
Excellent work! Thanks for sharing.

Extremally well thought out very nice job
Great sander. I love the height adjustment mechanism and the manual feeder drums! Great idea, cheers!
+CarlosGlatzos976 Thanks! Carlos, it took a lot of time to build but so satisfying in the end.
Very impressive. One word comes to mind about your drum sander: ingenious.
+Val Black Thank you Sir. You just made my morning!
This is incredible man, thanks for the video.
+Josh Smith your very welcome! I hope it inspires you and others to build your own, like the countless CZcams videos that had inspired me.
Excellent. Like you I really want a drum sander, but can't justify spending $1200+ on a 24" sander. Now I have an example to follow.
+Mike Kling My thoughts exactly. I Needed a 24" drum sander to thickness guitar top, back and sides. Building it myself didn't cost a lot of money... Just lots of time and patience. I still gotta build the dust shroud and belt guard. I'll post it once it's completed.
good design on that second out-feed roller.
Very cool build. Some clever stuff there.
Very smart build!
Great design re the chain driven height adjuster and spring tensioned feed drums. Also using pipe for the sanding drum. 👍👍👍😎
+John Grant thanks for watching.
Brilliant!
best home made design i have ever seen for a home made drum sander! i particularly like the depth adjustment great design! But i have a suggestion coming from experience with an industrial 3 phase version on the first and last 6 inches or so of the workpiece you can hear the sander taking a little more off this is because the infeed and outfeed rollers allow the piece to pivot and the drum bites a little deeper than the middle if you get me? i would put 2 infeed and outfeed rollers on either side of the drum to prevent this so the workpiece cannot bow upwards into the drum. let me know what you think
+Thomas Doherty Thanks for the suggestion. So if im understanding you correctly, 4 rollers instead of just the two. That way there's always at least 2 points of contact with the work piece, thus minimizing/ eliminating
yeah thats it in a jist of it haha
Where did you get you gears from? What diameter is your drum? Where did you get your hook Velcro to go on the drum? How did you make the crank handle to raise and lower the table? How long are your 5/8" all tread rods? This is the best home made drum sander I have seen on You Tube!! Thanks, Dan email:dan@wemorph.com
Great job! Cheers, Rob.
+Robert Williams Thanks!
Love your design. I have seen many of these machines made and yours is a winner. I want to make one! Have you thought about adding a gear reduction motor to the feed instead of the hand crank?
great job
Great job
Very cool! !!
Salute!
like the way you make the raise system for the table , gives me some ideas for other projects
+watahyahknow Glad you like it.. I made the sprockets myself, so they have a bit of variance in tolerance that causes it to slip if I'm too aggressive with turning it. Good luck on your build.
The manual top feed system (with the springs) is quite clever! I might just opt for that. Thanks for sharing!
+wintersnot your very welcome. Good luck on your build!
Thanks, cheers.
Очень круто))
This is a top draw project, the design is really cool. well done
Thanks Raymond! It was fun to build and very satisfying to use.
Great planning and execution.
Mike
+Mike Lamothe Thanks Mike!
👍👍👏👏excellent build.
Thanks for Sharing! Good job!!! Does The tool work well With thicker wood ?
Wonderful engineering job young fellow. If I find I might need a drum sander, you have given me much insight into building one. Thank you.
+Murray Lowe Thanks Murray! Happy Thanksgiving.
Your very welcome and Happy Thanksgiving to you also. I already had ours awhile ago. I live above your North Border. LOL
Amazing.
I know this is a older video, but great job man!!!
I know I’m 2-1/2 years late but found this to be an excellent example for what I want to build. May I ask how thick material can you pass through?
On a suggested note perhaps use a small electric motor for advancing the material through
For sprockets get some small fixed wheel ones from a bicycle shop and either enlarge the holes or down size the thread bar.
Love this design brother very well done 👍
muy bien hecho amigo
Excellent
like the way you added the disk sander to the motor
Would have been better at the end of the Drum sander rod, so you are not laying on the floor to work.
That height adjustment system is insane
I mean, it's not terribly complicated, it's just so clever enough not seen anything like that
Wow Khai that is nice, subbed!
+Jim Beshears Thanks Jim! Been meaning to do a follow up vid on a drum shield/dust hood and belt cover for the drum sander. The CZcams community is awesome! It's fun seeing that there are people out there that actually find this stuff interesting. (My wife definitely not one of them..LOL)
thank you great build kudos to you
Thanks for watching Walter!
This is phenomenal. Thank you very much for sharing. Just wondering if anyone has tried to CAD this design?
Thx, nice
Amazing
Im building a 33 inch belt sander right now, but this might be next on the list. Definately an excellent build :) Nice to see what luthiers are building for themselves.
Mikkel Bom Simonsen 33" belt sander build sound awesome.. if you're gonna vlogg it, I'd love to see it.
:) Will do for sure!
Very creative solutions. Really great.
+Noeraldin Kabam Thanks, glad you liked.
Wow! This is the most unique homemade drum sander I have ever seen. How difficult would it be to attach a hood over your creation to suck up the dust? Overall you made one hell of a drum sander. The time it took to design and implement it definitely paid off. It truly is a very useful tool. After seeing your drum sander any other design on CZcams is just a joke. If you were to get someone to blueprint your design you could sell the design online. I’d buy one without a doubt. I am going to subscribe to your channel In hopes that you may have your design printed. How difficult would it be to attach a hood over the drums to pick up the dust? Thank you for sharing it on CZcams.
Good Job.
+Kevin Yager Thanks!
Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this video. It truly is ingenious. Especially the pinch roller springs and the feed. Not to mention the 4 corner table lift. Do you have any suggestions on building the table so it will not warp due to temperature and humidity changes?
Your very welcome, I've got a lot of video clips of my guitar build but haven't had time to edit them (mostly procrastination) thank you for giving me that nudge. As to the table I do get some vibration and slight warping now that you mention it, mainly due to using a cheap hollow Ikea end table. In hindsight 3 layers of birch plywood with formica laminated on top would of been ideal. Oh.. and bind the edges wouldn't hurt.
Super cool Khai.
Thanks! Niel.. it's amazing how necessities can drive you create something pretty cool out of scraps.
The best design i have seen
+Michael Flynn Thanks! So rewarding when you build something and it actually works as intended.
Sensacional o seu projeto! Muito obrigado por compartilhar !!!
awesome
Awesome job!! You really put a lot of thought into that machine! Is there a dust collection thought coming soon as well??
Thanks! I've bought the materials to make the dust collection but just never got around to building it.
nice build i got to give you credit you did a great job
Thanks 😊
Looks great
+hugo Bose thanks!
Do you have plans for this available?? I have been looking for a while trying to find the drum sander I liked the most, and so far, this is looking like I want it in my workshop.
Could you explain a little bit more about the table top, did you build that as a torsion box? I would think that would need to be really stiff to stop it from flexing when you are sanding pieces of material in the centre of the sander?
Also, would it not work better if the springs that creates the downward force in the drive drums were stronger, it looked like they were slipping a bit when you ran it at the end of the video?
Otherwise the sander looks very stuff and sturdy, well done! :-)
+Morten Mortensen the table top is an old IKEA end table I had laying around (there is some degree of flex), ideally should of uses at least two layers of plywood with melamine glued to it. As with the springs you could always go bigger, but with the weight of the feed roller assembly along with the 4 spring it seems to be sufficient. The way I had designed it I could easily add more downward pressure just by tighting up the retainer spring screw, the downside being... that it might deflect the cheap IKEA table even more!
Thanks for watching.. good luck on your build and post a video of it.
Nice well thought out build. Probably makes a mess and a lot of dust but these problems could also be fixed down the road. I like the furnace Blower motor idea. Thats about a 3/4 horse motor it dosn't take much power to run somthing.
A few guards for the belts and hood for the drum to collect dust and its as good as a new one sort of. Hey if it works find something elses you need to buy first.
+bobbg It does make a huge mess..LOL . Drum hood and belt guard has been on the back burner for quite some time.
Excellent design and execution of engineering principles. You have a gift for solving practical problems. Plans? Many thanks for sharing.
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully it will inspire others to make their own.
innovative
Impressive!!
+Brad King thanks for watching Brad.
Great build and thanks for sharing. I'm building something similar. Did you just use common adhesive back velcro from the hardware store or something supplied specifically for this purpose?
Thanks for watching Zax, I used regular Velcro brand I think 2" wide. Just the hook side, the sandpaper roll had the loop backing.
I normally find most CZcams shop made/home made drum sanders almost laughable , that is if they weren't so dangerous looking... but in this case, I think you did a real nice job with it and it looks like it could easily be expanded on ! Look for an old treadmill that you wouldn't mind repurposing then retrofit the motorized tread/belt into a conveyer table for your sander.
Travis the chimp Had the same thoughts and you can control speed also of feed
Good job, i took your idea and it work´s good.
+Kame Singh that's great to hear! I'm glad it worked out for you. Did you build a dust shroud for it too? I haven't, and this thing puts dust everywhere!
hi Khai Do you have plans for the sander???
Excellent build! You may want to look into having a conveyor belt on the bottom to put your work through it. Use an old treadmill, they go used for like $25 around here and they've got an unbelievable amount of power with variable speed.
+J. Dana Clark Thanks for the suggestion it would be handy to have it motorized.
