[Shop-talk] Spindle Sander question:

[Pat Horne]

Rigid EB4424 says it has both oscillating and "rotary motion", which may 
mean a non-oscillating configuration

Delta SA350k doesn't say it is an oscillating sander, but some of the 
poor reviews indicate that the oscillation feature stops when a nylon 
gear strips!!

Peace,
Pat
