    Need help with flattening (bolsters, scales, etc.)

    Some times the platen that comes with a belt sander, for example a Ryobi I have, is not completely flat. I added a thin(3/32") plate of stainless steeel to mine with JB Weld. It really helps. But I findI do most of the sanding by hand, with wet/dry on a 3/4" thick piece of plastic.

    cheapest shop air cleaner around

    I have this down in The Dungeon, too, and I tape a cheaper filter on the outside of the better filter to catch the larger particles. Then I just vacuum it out after use.
