[@diyforknuckleheads]

👍😁...Loved the intro Hoss! It was like watching Indiana Jones unveil an old Egyptian Relic 😂 You and Rob make a great team! Nice bit of kit mate 👍😁🇦🇺

[@BuiltByChris]

Cheers, thanks Uncle Knackers. Robs a top bloke and is always ready to lend a hand. And the sander, is a real cracker. I love it. 👍👍

That's one sweet and heavy machinery there, Chris. Its going to make sanding so easy. 👍 😀

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks mate, it's all part of my master grand plan. 👍👍

[@LonghornWorkshop]

Dang mate it’s Christmas in February. Nice looking machine

[@BuiltByChris]

Well, in my workshop at the very least. Thanks mate. 👍

[@sumosprojects]

Nice review Hoss, a machine that’ll give you satisfactory results every time for getting cutting boards finished & it’s a must for you as you edge closer to the age of retirement mate 👍👍👍👍🇦🇺

[@BuiltByChris]

You better believe it Harry. One step closer. 👍👍

[@MindMatterCreate]

Great review Chris ! Looks like a good machine. My home made drum sander makes life so much easier, you'll love that thing !

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks Dave, I've used it a couple of times now, and it's really making a difference in my workshop. 👍👍

That is a wonderful machine Chris and a sound investment. I remember 45 years ago sandinging by hand, inch thick planks of oak from an old wardrobe to make furniture of my own and it was horse work. That drum sander will be so useful. Good luck with the workshop extension which will be a vital part of your re-jigging process. My workshop is on the first floor so if I extended it would jut out into thin air! Just a thought if I may Chris, if you put an outlet for your small vac to plug into in the cover over where the fine residue collects it could remove that at the same time as you vac from the drum with the big vac. Ear defenders needed though :)

[@BuiltByChris]

Thank you Eryk. Now a days, we have all these wonderful machines that make life so much easier, but, I can't help but think that maybe they have taken away the hand made personal touch of woodworking. And as for the outlet on top, you must have read my mind. I'm going to 3d print a piece that will fit on top to take an extra hose. Cheers mate, and I hope you are keeping well. 👍👍

[@woodfather]

ooh, now that's a tool that doesn't appear in many workshops, bit of a treat to have, Santa did come in Feb it seems! good stuff!

[@BuiltByChris]

I've been wanting one for a while now. This one ticked all the boxes. It's gonna get quite the workout. 👍

[@longsplinter-paul]

Brilliant little sander, even better little vid.

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks Paul. It certainly is a little ripper. 👍👍

[@timbeconaus]

Looking good Chris! Poor Rob...

[@BuiltByChris]

Nice machine Chris👍

[@JoesWorkbench]

Nice looking sander 😍. Great unboxing, super handy machine to have that’s for sure 👍🏻

[@BuiltByChris]

It's a cracker for sure. And it's going to see a lot of use in the future. 👍

[@SmallFryCreations]

Looks like a great unit Chris!!! Great add to the workshop!

[@BuiltByChris]

It's an absolute cracker. This is one machine that is going to see a lot of work. 👍

[@carbonfe]

You've got a sweet setup my friend. Just found your channel and enjoying your content. I also have a small garage that I work out of and deal with the same space related issues you have. Much love from Texas!

[@BuiltByChris]

HI Jason, thank you for watching, your kind words and welcome aboard. There will be new content coming very soon. Cheers mate. 🇦🇺🇺🇸🍺🍺👍

[@rossgebert9422]

I'm jealous, damn you Chris, ha ha!

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks Ross. I get that from a few people 🤨🤣🤣👍👍

[@pajaro685]

Great review. I had the same problem with my band saw, it was way too heavy for me to lift onto the base, so i laid it down and bolted the base on then lifted it all upright! Was still heavy, but a lot easier to lift. Clicked my fingers raw, but no one turned up! Cheers

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks Michael, we thought about that method, but opted instead for what you saw on the video. Thankfully Rob appeared when I needed him. Cheers mate. 👍👍

[@JohntheSchreiner]

Looks like a decent machine!

[@BuiltByChris]

Thanks John, it really is a great machine. Very happy with the purchase. 👍👍

[@goxelpamuk9466]

thats great job mate you are good man

[@BuiltByChris]

Thank you Goxel, I appreciate it, mate.

[@DownUnderWoodWorks]

You’re tempting me mate. I’ve thought of getting a drum sander in the past but didn’t think it fit into my workflow. I could always reconsider 🤣 what model is that one?

[@BuiltByChris]

The model number on the machine is "SWD-460-Z". It has 1500 watts of power. It's not up on the Timbecon website yet, as it is a brand new model. Hope that helps. 👍

[@DownUnderWoodWorks]

@@BuiltByChris Thanks, I’ll look out for it

[@kmwoodlab.]

Good

[@FixitFingers]

So when you said the workshop was done... you meant THIS workshop is done... not withstanding the NEW workshop that will appear next to it 🤣

[@BuiltByChris]

Yep, it's getting to the point where I have to think about extending. If only I could stop buying machines. 👍👍
