    Your videos are great and easy to follow and very educational! My gym floor sanding knowledge for my own work has vastly improved!

    I was gonna ask if you have issues with chatter because of the split drum. I used to trim down my galaxy drum and people thought I was 🥜

      We replace our drums & drum bearings every year. We try to dress the drums as shown on this video every gym or two. As long as we take these steps, we can minimize the chatter. It is always an issue with a split drum!!

    So I have a ? For u I have an old American 12in split drum sander and while sanding the floor I noticed if I drop the drum all the way down it seems to bog down or lose power and want to die.. do u know what could cause that

      I am only guessing here Joesph, but start with electrical connections. Check your cord plugs for loose wires, if the are all good, check the wire nuts in the handle where the cord plugs into the machine!

    I have a question on the bleacher casters. What should have the janitor dont to prevent the build up with adding another coat?
    I have a baby grand panio on my floors and i really dont want to tip it on its side to take it out. Is there a way i can add a coat without taking my 3 legged panio on casters out of the room? It lools like a symilar situation to be bleachers.

      Hey Mitch, we have recoated rooms with grand piano’s in them. We usually just get under the piano with a paint pad and apply the finish to the floor working around the legs. This usually is less work than trying to move the Grand Piano!

      ​@@WyomingWoodFloors awsome! This great to know I wasn't sure if I could go around the legs and not do under them or not! Have a great day I enjoy your videos!

    Love the demonstration, but I HATE Norton paper. Lagler brand paper outperforms it. ALWAYS

    • @WyomingWoodFloors
      @WyomingWoodFloors  Рік тому

      Interesting! Is Lagler abrasive available in 12” rolls for drum sanders?

    • @WyomingWoodFloors
      @WyomingWoodFloors  Рік тому

      Also I’m told Lagler drums are slightly football shaped, so you are not supposed to dress a Lagler drum the way we do in this video.

    Perché nn lo passate a 30 gradi per spianare e poi per il verso del legno per dargli il piano?
