One of these days soon I may take the plunge and buy a drum sander. It'll mostly be used for finish sanding of panels and frame-and-panel doors, rather than for stock preparation, since I have an 8" jointer and a thickness planer (and a bunch of hand planes, too).
I have heard and read good things about the Performax 16-32 Plus and the Delta 31-250, either of which seems to me a good buy.
What's the experience of other Creek dwellers with these (or other) machines?
