Review: Time saver - I’ve owned this 18/36 Jet drum sander about a year. I’m glad I spend the extra for the 18” model over the 16”. One end is open so it can handle wider pieces. The sanding drum was challenging to change the first time, but I got the hang of it, and it’s fairly easy now. Great addition to my shop and a huge time saver
Review: I have enjoyed using the sander a lot - I have enjoyed using the sander a lot. It works better than expected. I would recommend anyone interested in a drum sander to look into price and availability of replacement abrasive. Obviously there is a learning curve with any new tool. It was very easy to set up. MY BIG GRIP was the fact that when the unit arrived at the house, the stand was not with it. Contacted desertcart, three days later they got back to me. "Shipping company was doing a dock search". That's when I called Customer Service at JET. She was great ! Took all my info and went back to desertcart and the shipping company to fight my fight. She emailed back that she gave up and just ordered a new one and delivered it to the house. That is why I purchased a JET. I've never had to deal with JET customer service before, but because they are an established company I purchased from them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long does a 3 inch wide roll abrasive need to be cut to fit the JWDS 1836?**
A: 91" is the length of the 80 grit roll that came off the machine that was pre-installed for me.  I ordered some extra rolls from Jet and none of them fit as they were at least 2" shorter than the factory installed roll.  I called Jet and they don't know what the length should be and said they would check and get back to me.  They never did call me back.  Now I have to sand the rest of the panels by hand until I can get paper that fits this drum.

**Q: have these really gone from 1300 to 2500 in 3 years?**
A: I paid $1963.99 this year with free shipping from Amazon. Could have paid same price locally but would have paid $199.00 shipping.

**Q: Where do I find replacement ready to wrap paper? I can find it for 16-32 and 22-44 but not this machine.**
A: JET abrasive wraps for this machine are 60-18036/60/80/100/120/150/180/220

Abrasive strips are 3-3/8” wide, cloth backed, and aluminum oxide.

**Q: Replacement sand paper pre cut**
A: Yes. You can purchase replacement sand paper pre-cut.
