BUCKTOOL 5.0A Belt Disc Sander 4 in x 36 in Belt and 6 in Disc Sander with 3/4HP Direct-drive Motor and Portable Al Base, BD4603 Upgraded Model

I only used it for 3 minutes, and it will be used for thousand of hours or more. Love this sander. Has equivalent power of the 1.5 HP 6x48 belt sander we have at work. I purchased this 4x36 belt sander because its for personal use at home. Its quiet and very powerful. Will be using this alot. From what it used it for, i would give it 10 stars. Very well built, powerful and compact easy to use, put together in 2 minutes Thank you Bucktool.

This is definitely the best bench sander I’ve ever owned. Quality built, smooth operation, doesn’t bog down like the other belt driven ones do. Makes quick work of sanding projects and vacuum hooked right up and kept everything clean.

Seems like a solid basic stationary belt sander, a decent value. Ask me again in 20 years, see if it lasts like my previous one...

Solid belt sander - sanding is easily my least favorite task on any project. I mainly wanted the belt sander to give me a flat surface to sand on for brushing metal flat bar. A number of the parts are available for purchase, which is useful in the event I break anything.

I recently purchased the Bucktool 4 Inch Belt Sander, and I must say, it's been a game-changer in my workshop. One of the standout features for me is its direct drive system. Unlike traditional belt sanders, the direct drive ensures consistent power delivery which is great for my students who tend to put a little more pressure than they sometimes should! Speaking of power, this sander packs quite a punch. Whether I'm smoothing out rough surfaces or shaping wood, it handles the job with ease. Plus, its solid construction speaks volumes a Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed with the Bucktool sander. It's efficient, powerful, and built to last. If you're in the market for a reliable belt sander, this one definitely deserves consideration.

Look on the internet at this unit and you will find it’s in the top 10 of best sanders. It’s better than comparable dewalt unit. The dewalt unit is 299.00 This unit is a 6 inch wheel sander and a dewalt is only 4. This unit is a great buy. Do your homework researching this unit on the internet. Buy one as they are a great general use unit.

I put a 36 grit ceramic belt on it for inital profiling of vintage axes, some of them of steel alloys in the upper Rockwell 50s, too frustrating to do with files. It's heavy and stays put. I like the security no matter how I position it. Stays firm. NOT crazy about the miter attachments, which are sloppy in the slots, but you know what? I can make those work. Not a deal breaker. Main thing I was worried about was if it had the power it was rated as having. It sure does! Powerful belt sander. Been using it pretty much nonstop since I got it. One thing: I have not yet tried the vacuum hookup, but really should have. Got a mess on its dedicated workbench now. And yep, found out that when you're grinding steel, wear a facemask. Your nostrils will be lined with metal filings if you don't. Did that the first time only. Weaing a mask now while using it. Unpleasant and probably, of course, unhealthy. Include a 3M cartrridge mask or the like when you buy this. Haven't tested the vacuum setup yet, but I'm going to suggest I wouldn't trust any vacuum system to keep you from breathing metal dust. Get a mask.

This is the first belt/disc sander I have owned. I have used the belt sander a couple of times and it works great. I took one star away because the dust ports on the belt and on the disc are different sizes. The unit came with an adapter but it only fits on the disc collector port. I don't own a lot of dust creating tools but having different size ports on one tool seems odd. The port on the belt sander is on the side, but shown on the end in the images. It makes more sense to be on the side so that is a plus. The disc sander did not come with a safety cover. A safety cover was not shown in the item description, but it might be a good to have item.

all good

Great belt sander for amateur builders. Easy to put the attachments on. And easy to adjust. Switching belts was also pretty straight forward. The dial to adjust the belt position makes it simple to keep the belt alignment. I would rate this 5* as it is a workhorse but if I spent more money I would have expected some refinements. Overall happy with the products. Cons. The adjustable tables don’t always stay at the set degree. So I’ve had to make sure they were in the right position multiple times throughout my sanding project. Sadly this messed up 2 pieces I was working on. So now I check to make sure the angle is where I need it. Also don’t trust the guides. They are just screwed on, and move around. The dust collection is a little awkward but not sure what else could be done.

Shopped around a lot for one of these. I use them in my shop for cutting board sides. For the money I am very impressed. Build quality and appearance are very solid and old school. Power is very good. Only critique I have is the belt bend angle adjustment is not as easy as others. I would give this a strong 4/5. Buy it

I like to use the belts anders in a horizontal position not vertical so when I do that the switch is on the back side which is not the best but I'll make it work...when I hv to sand a longer piece I hv to take off the work table n take off the dust collector...I'll see how this works....the roller at the non-drive end is cheap plastic n wore out in two months. Very cheaply made. I replaced the roller with a metal one from one of my old machines...much better now...

Hubby very happy 😊 Works well
