Machine Description

     Bandit RB2 is a variable speed router. Bandit was designed to clean up and polish the sink hole following the same template as Chopper and Tracker. The base of the router has a rotating collar that follows the template guiding the abrasive drum at a set distance from the template. The set distance is adjustable with a leadscrew. This patent pending design allows the fabricator to control the finer grit abrasive drums that are metal or resin type without a rub bearing. This collar following the template prevents the operator from rippling up the stone's edge. This design also allows the fabricator to adjust the size of the sink cutout using the same template and also adjust for the changing diameter of the diamond drum, as it becomes smaller due to wear. Bandit rolls on stainless steel ball casters. These ball casters will roll freely even when there is stone slurry on the template. These ball casters don't need a slick plastic surface to roll on. Therefore, this allows the fabricator to use less expensive, easier to machine 1/2" thick plywood for the template material.
