Sorry about your Drum Sander. Hope you got both the Top and the Sander fixed! Sometimes, things just don't seem to want to go right. Build is looking good.
Regards,

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Doesn't fit? Get a bigger hammer.

Re: Ron Steiger
Hey, man;
Sorry 'bout the top!
My sander was doin' this for a bit - It was when I changed brand of belts I was using - The old ones, I could wrap tight; the new ones did what yours did when I wrapped them the same way - I now give 'em about 1/2" between wraps and no more problems - Hope that helps!

Re: Ron Steiger
My first batch were Delta, and when I wrapped them around the drum, I could do it so each wrap was tight to the next.
I get mine from Woodworker, and I use this Zirconia stuff which lasts really well - http://www.woodworker.com/cgi-bin/FULLP ... der%20Roll
With this stuff, when I wrapped it around the drum as I had been doing with the Delta stuff, it did exactly what yours did -Now, I leave about 1/2" between each wrap and no more problems!
