Don't know whether he has the sanding drum on the floor in the pic (you can raise the drum off the floor), but having resurfaced a ton of bowling lanes back in the day, you're correct...with the grain...and NEVER stop with the drum on the floor... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
