It's very crude, but it does work.

The fence was taken from a sharpening machine I have.

I like it - simple but effective.

The key, for replication, imho is that fence (which I guess the two metal pillars and swivelling joints are part of) which looks solid. I see you've also 'trapped' the sander in the jig - a great improvement versus my chasing my belt sander across the garage floor until it hits something solid :lol:

Thanks for sharing.
 
Hi Mike,

No problem ;)

You're not meant to use it belt-side down, you know! :D
