Mark, do you know who makes Craftsmans bigger sanders? Bosch?

I have no idea. I honestly didn't research it terribly well when I bought it!

Googling "manufacturer of Craftsman Belt sanders" didn't help....

Their smaller belt sander looks a little like a Ryobi, but Ryobi doesn't make anything over 5.3amps by the look of it. A couple of years back when I was doing some research on them, I'm pretty sure that "Bosch" came up as a manufacturer of the larger units, probably yours(no jokes about having a large unit, please).

Roxanne and Bill were surprised to hear a knock at the door. "Expecting someone?" purred Roxanne. "Not that I know of". Roxanne pulled the sheet up to cover her as Bill grabbed a towel. "I'll see". His tone implied he was annoyed at the interruption. Bill opened the door to find a middle aged, pudgy man. "I'm taller than this guy. I could take him if it came down to it" Bill thought. "Can I help you?" he asked instead. "I'm Mark. Roxanne called me earlier. I brought my sander, and I was told I have a larger unit".

Alas, poor Roxanne was led to believe that his larger unit was an orbital vibrating sander, not a belted one.....

I asked the salesman at Sears today who made the sander, and if it was a Bosch. He said not a Bosch, and that it was just a Craftman, no other manufacturer. Hmmm. I don't know.

My experience has been that many Craftsman products are made by B&D but more towards Dewalt durability standards, actually better than in some instances. I have the 4" Craftsman belt sander and the only problem I notice is that the 4" belt is hard to find anywhere else except Sears. The lack of storage case and not being able to attach a vacuum are not a big deal to me, as long as the tool works. You most likely could attach a vacuum by making an adapter yourself.
