1:1 printable templates
Shown below are the 1:1 printable templates for the 1x42" version. The 1.5"x48"
version is actually simpler as the direct drive makes for fewer parts.
The 1:1 printouts are for pasting onto a sheet of plywood and cutting it out
on a bandsaw (much faster than CNC), also for checking part sizes that aren't
cut from templates.
The templates span across several A4 or letter sized pages that you can print on
a regular sized printer. An alignment grid helps to line up the pages when gluing
them together.
Four pages, 18 mm (3/4") plywood
Four pages, 11 mm (3/8"-7/16") plywood
Four pages, 6 mm (1/4") plywood
Six pages, base, 18 mm (3/4") plywood
Building instructions
The plans also include extensive building instructions, with over 100 photographs showing
the steps involved in building the strip sander.
