Ridgid Spindle/belt sander

[rseeley13]

Good Morning All,
I was wondering if anyone has converted the Ridgid Oscillating Spindle/Belt sander over to a 1/4" shaft. Since we do a lot of cnc with a 1/4" cutter I would love to be able to sand in those tight areas. I really don't want to buy something else so I was wondering if anyone has done it or if it is even possible before I tear the machine apart. If so let me know where you got your 1/4" shaft please.

Thanks
Ryan

If you figure out how to do this, please take pics and show us what you do, I've got a similar need.

thanks

This is the reason why I went with the Jet

That Jet is on my Tool Wishlist, but I couldn't beat the price I got mine for. Free :)

We had ours before our cnc so before dropping more money I was wondering if anyone modified the Ridgid one. Just looking at my options before buying a new one.
