No need to refurbish or restore this sander. It is in superb condition.
A prime specimen from when Craftsman made durable long lasting tools. The belt tracks perfectly and the motor hums. I just purchased a spindle / disc sander and have no room or need for this one.
The stand is home made by the former owner. The locking casters work great.

There is a similar motor on Ebay for +$100. Everything works and it sounds wonderful It has been in my dehumidified shop since 2016. Before that, since the mid 70’s, it was in the original owner’s air-conditioned shop. All original

I’m a former woodshop teacher, cabinet and furniture maker, and avid tool collector. I’ve been collecting antique woodworking tools and restoring old Craftsman and Delta machines for almost forty years. I love the quality of the old Delta, Craftsman, Walker Turner, and other woodworking machinery from the 1940s through the ’70s. They just don’t make tools like that anymore and no one is going to be restoring woodworking tools purchased at big box stores fifty years from now. You can see my OldWoodworkingTools.com website about hand tools.
