I have a Parkside belt sander, it's very good and quick. I now need a machine for putting wood back on though.

We've all been there

Problem I always found with cheapy belt sanders is keeping the belt on the rollers!!

I bought one of these 20 quid ones - the amount of times I use one wouldn't warrant a Ma,Bo or DeW. I find it spot-on, and the belt tracking stays true and is easy to adjust. It struggles a bit on the missuses big-toe nail though

I find that a pair of secateurs used used down make short work of big-toe nails.
