WASP Sander (Drill Press Belt Sanding Attachment): Discontinued

The WASP Sander was a belt-sanding attachment that chucked into a drill press, turning it into a stationary edge and contour sander for wood, metal and plastic. The pitch was speed of setup — clamp it in and it worked — over the cost and bench space of a dedicated belt or spindle sander.

There is no evidence of current production or retail availability. The product has no active manufacturer page, no current listing with any major tool retailer, and the trail of documentation for it — reviews, demo videos, forum discussion — dates back to the late 2000s with nothing since. That pattern is consistent with a small-batch product that quietly stopped being made rather than one that is merely hard to find right now.

What to buy instead

For the same drill-press-as-sander approach, a drill-press sanding drum kit like the POWERTEC set linked below covers the same ground: mount it in the drill press chuck and sand curves and edges without a dedicated spindle sander. It is not a belt sander specifically, but it solves the same problem the WASP Sander was bought to solve — using a tool you already own for sanding jobs a benchtop belt or disc sander is overkill for.

If you are set on a genuine belt-sanding attachment rather than a drum kit, a dedicated benchtop belt/disc combo sander is the more reliable current option, at the cost of needing its own space on the bench rather than borrowing the drill press.
