Bevel.Sanding
The Model W1686 has a tilting table to allow bevel
sanding at a variety of angles. Bevel sanding on a
spindle sander is NOT an exact science. When the table
is tilted to 45˚, the actual angle sanded on the edge of
a workpiece will change if the workpiece is sanded at
different positions around the spindle.
