First Impressions

"Table is easy to rotate."

The tracking adjustment on the machine is awesome and very easy to use. Glad I made the purchase and will recommend to others. I was surprised it held up as long as it did for the price. If you have a use for this substantial and flexible machine, go for it! I use it for all sorts of edge sanding needs.

Shop Fox W1717 Final Thoughts

"Instructions were a little vague."

It was a real pleasure having this beast for contouring and sanding. Glad I made the purchase and will recommend to others. I converted it to 220V operation and it works fine. Two improvements could be made to the machine. When I upgraded to a better t/s I used my 1st/old one as a disk sander.

Overall Score 3.0
