From time to time I've found the need to be able to swing something to the right when working at the belt side of my combination sander without running into the guard of the disk now I can. I may cover the top with laminate.

I usually find it much easier to be wrong once in while than to try to be perfect.

Looks like a good work-a-round but other than perhaps a glimps of the tails of 2 C clamps I can't see how you made the attachment. Would you share that detail also. TIA
Keep improvising, you are gifted at it.
Work safe, have fun, enjoy the sport.

You got it right I drilled a hole in each end with a forstner bit & clamped it down with c-clamps.

What did you clamp it to? Do you have two tables on your sander? I think one table and only a small blade stop is the rule with these machines.

Steve I have the table from a Grizzly G1495 lathe that has the disk sander on the out board side of the head stock mounted for the belt side of the sander. It was a gift from a friend.

Bart,
Pretty cool idea. I love making shop jigs and such that help make life easier in working on a project.
Thanks for sharing.
