Does DMS have a 1/2" bandfile belt sander

I’m looking for a tool to help refine the Hardy Tool opening on my anvil which is almost one inch square. A powered 1/2" (or so) sanding belt is just what I need. Do we have one at DMS? If so, where is it stored and what length belts does it use?

I’m looking for a tool similar to this one. Either air or electric-powered would work:

Thanks for confirming - I thought we did.

Do you know what size belts it uses?

Do you know where it is stored?

I’d like to use it this evening and I figure new belts will be needed.

It was in the tool box the last time I saw it.
Standard 1/2” belts x 18” I think. The last belts I bought were from HF

With help, I checked all cabinets and shelves in Metal Shop.

I cannot find the detail sander.

Charles thought he saw it on the bench nearest the door a couple (?) of days ago.

Time to review tapes? :frowning:

I last saw someone with it on the work tables next to automotive. Maybe they forgot to out it back.

We did a sweep through automotive and the general work tables as well as Machine Shop - no luck.

I bought a sander for my project this afternoon.

@hon1nbo located the DMS sander this evening.

It’s back in Metal Shop where it belongs.

FWIW, I used my extra belts to restock DMS’s supply.
