Belt/Disc Sanders
Hey all. Looking for a belt disc sander for my basement workshop. No room for an edge sander. Thought about used but there is literally zip on CL in my neck of the woods. Read as much on the 2 specific models I’m considering but most of it is really old. Hoping to get some new feedback and or advice. First one I’m looking at is the Rikon 50-120. I like the compactness and price is better than the next. Not thrilled about the wacky dust port sizes. Next would be the Jet JSG-96. Not as compact. I like the dust collection setup. Price is a lot more. Reviews are all over on both. Either one would be mounted to a rolling {maybe flip} cart. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day

Indeed, welcome.
However... We are mainly Aussies here. The range of anything available here is nothing like you likely have access to. Although i have seen both rikon and jet for sale.
*update - the rikon is available here but it doesn't look like the jet is
Maybe someone has one and will comment.
Regards
Russ
