Bought a belt sander. Cleaned it up

Here’s what I got for around 20 euros. It’s an Atlas Copco belt sander made in Germany in 1997. It just might be the only tool I own that is made in Germany. This is what it looked like when I bought it. It also had some bench stands which are the sole reason I thought it would be a useful tool to have.

Doesn’t look like much. Covered in paint, absolutely filled with sanding dust and and it had a split belt drive pulley, but i managed to clean it up a bit.

Finally a quicker way to get those aluminium extrusions square.
