Achieve Amazing Sanding and Sharpening Results with Shopsmith's Exclusive Conical Sanding Di    

Get Super-Smooth, Swirl-Free Sanding Results On the Most Troublesome Edges and Surfaces With the Remarkable Shopsmith Conical Sanding Disc

• Joint Highly Figured Woods Without Tearing or Chipping
• Produce Glue-Quality Edges on Sheet Goods
• Shave End Grains to Length with Glass-Smooth Results
• Achieve Superior Sharpening Results on Planer and Jointer Knives

This strange-looking disc will help you produce astonishing sanding results on workpiece surfaces and edges up to 4" wide. There's nothing else like it !

Here's how it works

The steel disc is made with a 4° tapered, cone-like shape. During use, your Mark 7 or Mark V's worktable is tilted to that same 4° angle and your rip fence or miter gauge is used as a guide to keep the stock moving in a straight line.

As the stock moves past the disc, a vertical band (about 1/4" wide) is created where the full workpiece edge (up to 4" tall) is in contact with the abrasives. Within this band, the abrasives and the workpiece edge move parallel with one another, and in opposing directions, delivering straight-line, swirl-free abrasion.

Achieve a Glass-Smooth, Glue Quality Finish on the Most Difficult Edges

No edge is too difficult. Unlike your jointer, the conical disc will shave the edges of highly figured birdseye or Burl woods without tearing or chipping. Where plywood, particleboard, MDF and laminate-covered composites will eat-up jointer knives, they're no problem for the conical disc!

Remove up to 1/8" In a Single Pass !

Where a 1/8" jointer pass across composites or figured woods is almost certain to produce poor results, not so with the conical disc! For proof, just grab a piece of figured wood or composite material... make your set-up for a 1/8" pass... follow all operational and safety instructions and shove it through. You'll be amazed!
