I've been using Snarfer to sniff out a drum sander on my local Craigslist and it finally found something I'm considering. I'm finding lots and lots of floor sanders when I search on 'drum sander' unfortunately.
I see these go for about $3k new and the ad states $1.8k for this one.
It is also north of 800 lbs and would be a beast to move for move so it is likely too big for me plus I was hoping for a Performax 22-44 to show up but I have a concern for those with any experience with this Powermatic sander:
The sandpaper appears to be a pain to wrap and find due to the reverse wrapping required and the 4" width needed. At least that is what I've read about thus far. I was curious about comments about this for anyone with direct experience.
Cheers
