BEST Benchtop Belt Sander || Bucktool vs Harbor Freight (Part 1)

Reviewing and Comparing the BEST benchtop 4x36 belt disc combo sanders. There are 3 main 4x36" belt/disc combination sanders sold are the market today and I have used all 3 at one time or another. So this video will show and talk about my experiences with each and which I consider to be the best bench top belt and disc sander on the market today. We look at the Bucktool 4x36 belt sander with 8 inch disc, the Harbor Freight 4x36 belt sander with 6 inch disc, and also an old Skil 4x36 belt sander with 6 inch disc. The harbor freight belt sander often goes on sale for $60 so it is half the price of the bucktool belt and disc combo sander but does that mean that the harbor freight belt disc combo sander is half as good? It really all depends on your needs. Which benchtop belt and disc sander will be the best for you? Do you need something compact that can be easily brought out when needed and stored away when not? Or do you need a belt sander with power and the best dust collection I have ever seen? Is the harbor freight or buck tool sander going to be used mostly for woodworking, metal working, professionally, or just on occasion at home for a DIYer? This are all factors that have to be considered when reviewing and comparing a tool to decide which will be crowned the best benchtop belt sander on the market.
