Rotation direction for belt sander sharpening

Yes, it's far better to have them flying in your face.

(G) the thing is you get more sparks with a duller belt. they seem to be hotter too.

Most of us stand in _front_ of the tool, not over it. Perhaps you should try it.

That's probably why you have so much problem. Try getting close enough so you can see what you are doing.

OK OK Ok ok ok ok ok... Goes against the way of my thinking but I trust your comments. :~) I thought it would surely make the cutting edge cut into the belt.
