Having a Belt and Disc Sander is a great idea in a small workshop, but should you buy a WEN 6502 or look for a different brand.  In this video, I will show you why I would not buy this particular power tool.

Over there we have a woodworking blog, tool store, links to videos, and plans (and related detailed videos for a fee) for our PopUp Workbench (and future builds).

I am no longer using Patreon in spite of any statement to the contrary you might see in a video uploaded before October, 2020.

2 Ways to Buy the Plans for the PopUp Workbench,  the Sawstallions or any other plans we have developed (mostly various shop cabinets).   Most are supported by numerous step-by-step how to build tutorial videos
1.  Go our Website and click on the Menu item "Woodworking Plans" http://smallworkshopguy.com
