Ruheena on Jan 04, 2015Sanders burn down if you use them non stop. They get hot and if you stop in between to let them cool a bit then most probably they might not burn up. Try this, and good luck.Helpful Reply

Gina Sanderson on Jan 05, 2015I agree with Teresa, we put all our pallets through a planer thicknesser. Works a treat. Just remember to do the sides as well as front and back.Helpful Reply
