I built this simple stand from plywood and 2x4's and added a blade storage box in front. Note the U-shape around the rear wheel - this doesn't quite touch the floor. It's to protect it from tipping...

I bought a couple of these:...
Sliding dovetails are another option (dove tails on the drawer sides; dovetail slots on the drawer front, cut from the bottom using a dovetail router bit). I've used this method to connect convex...
Do yourself a favor and buy an inexpensive brayer to spread the glue. Get one with a metal axle versus plastic as the plastic will wear out quickly when rolling a large surface.
Having done numerous projects on my and my friends houses I think curved walls are the norm...:D
https://www.veneersupplies.com/ Don't know how their prices compare to elsewhere.
I've used one of these for years without any damage to the vernier scale.
I've never had a "dust extractor" so I can't help you there. I've had three Shop Vacs - all died with smoke involved. I had a Hoover I bought sometime in the 90's to replace the second Shop Vac. ...
For segmented rings I agree with the other posters that hose clamps work well and are cheap. That said, to answer the OP's original question about other clamps. I own some of the Bessey strap...
I should have included a pic - the base is much wider than where the sander is attached. I also replaced the spindle storage to include room for the 3" spindle.

The stand I built for the one I used to own was 12" x 12". The only reason I replaced it was to get a larger OSS (bigger table and longer spindles).
I own the Shop Fox version of this sander (it has a larger table than the Grizzly model). The dust collection can be improved by building an enclosure under the table and by making...
Try a different blade. I had the same issue after I had my WWII 'fixed' by Forrest - one of the teeth had been adjusted well out of alignment. A put a different blade on and presto! no more teeth...
I bought one of the aforementioned "sewing machine" LED lights from Amazon with 30 LEDs, 12" gooseneck, and a magnetic base (looks like this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012C240BS/). The...
I built a storage box for my saw blades when I had a 14" saw. I built a similar one for sand paper storage.

I've had PC 16 gauge for 14 years and a PC framing nailer for 12. The only problem I've had was with the urethane piston stops that disintegrated recently on both. I repaired both - the parts cost...
I bought one at a woodworking show, then quickly realized two would be better, so I bought a second one. There are cuts I can safely do on the table saw with the GRR-Rippers I wouldn't have even...
I just bought a Rikon 10-342 (18") and got the mobility kit for it. I found it well worth the money. I can also move my router table and oscillating spindle sander with it (after a little...
I added a 4" port to the door over the lower wheel on my 14" Delta to augment the 2 1/2" port on the side by the lower guides. However, adding a zero-clearance, angled deflector out of wood just...
Clark's Hardwood Lumber Company is an excellent source for hardwoods and more; there are others. Woodcraft, Rockler, and Circle Saw are some of the local equipment dealers.
I've had my shop in a non-air conditioned garage for 30 years in Houston. I put a coat of Johnson's paste wax on the cast iron surfaces and keep the tools covered with lawn bags when not in use. ...
The original post is from 2007. The current manual for the GO514X2 doesn't appear to have the 'emergency only' warning.
I've replaced the pad three times since I bought one of these sanders new in 2005 (really only twice: hint - don't buy a replacement and let it sit for years then try and use it). The sander works...
My shop is heated by me being in it... :D
I built the kitchens at my previous and current houses in place. It took less wood than building them in the shop and installing them - there are no backs (just the wall), and they're contiguous for...
