The Sander is Fixed - More chessboards coming soon
Turns out the good folks at Woodmaster sent me the wrong size threaded rods for my broken Drum Sander. The ones they sent were too short. Of course I found this out AFTER I put them in the sander. But...much to my surprise, I was able to re-use the old rods. I spent the better part of my Saturday drilling for the new support brackets and putting the old threaded rods back in, but my beloved drum sander is working again. I tested my fix by cleaning up 3 chess boards and I'm almost ready to post those 3 boards for sale on the Website. I've also completed the initial face glue ups on about 95 cribbage boards and I've started on gluing up the bottoms for those boards. I have to say some the tournament size Cocobolo boards are pretty wild looking! The grain patterns of book matched Cocobolo are just amazing. The 10 most prettiest/most exotic looking boards (of the 35+ Tournament style Cocobolo boards) will be in a series titled "Favorite Comic Strips of the Past & Present". The 10 boards are named after my 10 favorite comic strips and each board will include a signed Anthology (collection of various comic strips) from my self-published comic strip, "The Help Desk".
