Central Machinery Heavy Duty Combination Belt/Disc Sander
I am looking at getting the Central Machinery Heavy Duty Combination Belt/Disc Sander from Harbor Freight Tools ($229.99, http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=40643).
The price is in my range, and I have Central Machinery Drill Press that is working out great (all my other big tools are Jet).
I know that Harbor Freight tools have a bad rep, and I have a Chicago Electric Cutout Tool from there that was a bad investment.
Does anyone have the Central Machinery Heavy Duty Combination Belt/Disc Sander that can tell me if it is worth it? I am planning to get this for Christmas, around Dec 15th.
Is there a better Belt/Disc Sander out there for under $300 that you would recommend?
Thanks,

Changed to Grizzly G1014Z or Delta 31-695
Based on the feedback that I have received, I think the Central Machinery Sander from Harbor Frieght is out. Seems like these two sanders are better, and in the same price range:
Grizzly G1014Z Combination Sander 6" x 48" Belt 9" Disc Z Series
Price: $275.00
http://www.amazon.com/Grizzly-G1014Z...631358-2659634
Delta 31-695 6-Inch/9-Inch 1 Horsepower Open Stand Belt/Disc Sander
Price: $179.01
http://www.amazon.com/Delta-31-695-6...4?ie=UTF8&s=hi
I am just not sure which one is better? Suggestions, comments, and help all welcome.
Thanks,
