Transform your shop with the ultimate combination package for fine detail sanding and precision tool sharpening. By bundling the ShopSmith Strip Sander with the Chisel Sharpening Attachment, you get complete multi-material shaping capabilities plus a dedicated station to put razor-sharp, super-keen edges on bench and lathe chisels—all while saving compared to purchasing items individually.
Key Capabilities & Applications
Precision Tool Sharpening: Set precise angles in under two minutes to sharpen bench chisels, lathe chisels, knives, scissors, and outdoor tools.
Detail Woodworking & Crafting: Smooth edges, models, miniatures, and intricate craft parts with complete control.
Internal Piercing Cutouts: Unthread and re-thread narrow belts through interior cutouts to sand internal contours easily.
External Curve Sanding: Smooth flowing curves on decorative valances and trim using the exposed upper tracking wheel or by removing the platen for free-hand sanding.
Multi-Material Shaping: Easily shape and grind parts made of metal, plastic, bone, and non-ferrous materials using 1" or 1/2" belts.
Engineered for Accuracy & Efficiency
Quick-Conversion Sharpening Setup: Replaces the standard sanding table with a specialized angle platen and handle holder. Drop in the chisel handle, set length and bevel angle, tighten two knobs, and begin sharpening.
Rugged Die-Cast Aluminum Table (11" x 11"): Provides a solid base for detail sanding, tilting from 0° to 45° for precision beveling.
Complete Platen Selection: Includes 1" flat, 1/2" flat, and 1/2" radius curved platens to handle flat faces, tight corners, and rounded profiles.
Automatic Belt Tensioning & Tracking: Spring-loaded mechanism maintains proper belt tension, while a single adjustment knob keeps belts tracking true.
Built-In Dust Port: Hooks into shop vacuum systems for woodworking operations. (Note: Disconnect dust collection during metal sharpening/grinding to prevent spark hazards).
