Triton or Vonhaus Spindle Sander

[Selwyn]

has anyone got one?

Just tempted to get one, bit of an impulse purchase really as not sure I would use it enough but fancy one.

Any opinions? Vonhaus for £109 incl VAT seems pretty good value

Apart from the sticker on the front these Chinese spindle sanders are all the same so if you are after one go for the cheapest.

I have the Triton version as it was on offer at Amazon, the exact same Scheppach was £30 more. It is a surprisingly good bit of kit and I have found it to be very effective on curved pieces and shaped components. Dust extraction is very good, the top plate was perfectly flat and the oscillating action is precise.

You can get different grit sanding drums and it’s only negative point is that it is a large machine so you need a bit of space.

I have one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sealey-SM1300- ... B01MDS8Z8F shop around they are available cheaper, its a good piece of kit as its two tools in one, so in effect takes up less room.
