Looking for a better mag base

Don't have to remove the tool that's mounted in the spindle. Again I rarely use mine mostly because of another reason. I'm just used to mounting in a collet even though it takes more time.

Glass Platen for Jet 2x42 Belt Sander (and Mobile Stand)

The stock platen for my Jet 2x42 sucks. I can easily flex it just pushing it with one finger. Also out the box it wouldn't even line up with the belt. It wasn't square with belt anyway & I would have needed to slot the slot. :) I wanted to make a new beefier & longer platen, decided to use...

In that link is another link to when I first installed them. Made by Vertex, I got them on ebay from supramachinetool (Acer). Price has gone up on them unfortunately. I did purchase a spare set from Grizzly a while back. The ones from Grizzly aren't labeled Vertex & are in their own packaging with their own p/n. But they look identical to the original Vertex ones I have & were cheaper, not sure if Grizzly carries all the sizes though. There may be others that make em too.

I hear you! I've been shovelling money out the door like I'm stoking the firebox of a steam locomotive!!!
(there should be a warning at the door... mind you there were many mentions of "oohh we can help you spend your money" from @mikey @mmcmdl @darkzero @Aukai and a raft of others, hoodlums, all of em! :p)
 
Don't pretend you weren't warned! There be dragons here, but they are somewhat helpful at helping you not waste your money. Burn through it faster than you thought possible, yes...
