Is there such a thing? Grizzley's is discontinued, but it sure would be handy...

The 6X80 edge sander would be much handier. Get the one with the tilting table, not the one with the wraparound table.

I Think both King and General make one.

Oddly I just saw this on our local classifieds.

I have a 6x 89 already. Hoping to drag into the big machine room and replace it with a smaller footprint machine in the RH room...

Grizzly makes an 80" edge sander that has an optional radius-ing attachment for fretboards I've been eyeing. Have you looked at that one? Whole thing with radius jib is around 800.

:) Bob, please don't misunderstand ... it is nice, but I didn't build it.

I think that what it will come down to. The shopfox w1717 is pretty close, but I don't see it as being worth 600$. So I've had a crazy scheme, I'll post pics later....

I appreciate that Haans. You and your instruments are an inspiration to many.
Cheers!
