I have a lot of banding to do and this should make things go faster than a hand iron.

I have a small, but growing rapidly, cabinet and custom wood working shop. I'm doing a job and have to band over 100 shelves and drawer bodies. I really didn't want to do this with an iron so I thought I would give this a try. It seemed to have good comments and it is affordable.
todd k on Dec 6, 2015
need it but has proven to be not so good thus far when edge banding pre-glued PVC material.
William H on Sep 15, 2015

where do I get replacement parts for this machine? need a new pinch roller but there is no part #'s for it...
Chris V on Jun 1, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Try contacting Rockler's technical support. The number is in the catalog.
I recently purchased the maching and noticed the guides do not support bands less than 1" wide. Is there a trick or maybe a guide for this size of band?
Gustavo C on Apr 12, 2015
BEST ANSWER: I have the same machine and typically run 7/8th and 15/16th through it.

I set the bottom guide so there is a slight overhang on underside of the piece I am banding, then I loosen the upper guide, slide the banding in and check to see there is not too much play then tighten the upper guide.

It should work. Good luck.
Do i need glue for this machine?
A shopper on May 2, 2015
BEST ANSWER: No you do not. But you need to buy a pre-glued edge band. The heat gun will melt it and it will adhere to your work piece. Note it takes some practice to adjust the gun temperature and adjustment of the guides. Once you have that set it works fine. It beats banding by hand using an iron.
I hope this helps
I need to be able to edge band rounded edges. Will this machine work?
ewa m on Jun 15, 2015
BEST ANSWER: If it's an outer rounded edge, you should be able to do it. An inner edge wont work.
Did you have this machine in 220 volts?
Rofersi on Feb 14, 2017
BEST ANSWER: No , 120 volts
Wouldn't a hand tool be more scalable ? Moving 24 deep 90 inch long 3/4 plywood across this little table seems un-practical
Deetle on Jul 15, 2017
BEST ANSWER: You are correct, trying to run a large piece through this machine is impractical.
In my shop I mostly do smaller pieces. For this purpose the machine is a great timesaver
is this edge bander used for pre-glued edge?
Sohail A on Apr 1, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Yes. I have used it a lot and found it to be great for single kitchen jobs. It will take you a bit to get used to it especially getting adjustments correct.
Does this table top edge banded work for .5 mm PVC edge tape?
Alicia D on May 6, 2015
BEST ANSWER: yes, as long as it's pre-glued -- just set the temp low enough to not melt the pvc but high enough to melt the glue.
Does this machine have hot glue support?
Ajay G on Mar 19, 2018
BEST ANSWER: No, it heats up the glue that comes on the banding tape.
Will this thing do prefinished UV coated edge banding without burning the finish?
Elliott on Feb 24, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Yes, I use the prefinished Edge banding all the time. I also use colored PVC Edge banding and wood veneer Edge banding
Will this edge bander band a circle, such as a lazy Susan?
Robert W on Feb 12, 2017
BEST ANSWER: This machine could band a circle, but without some pressure from the metal fences to keep the banding pressed tightly in place while the glue sets up, you might get variable results. If the prospect of hand ironing a lot of circles seems like a lot of drudgery, you could easily make a curved plywood "fence attachment" to add to this machine to do the job.
Does it band 3mm?
elnino59 on Jan 19, 2016
BEST ANSWER: I would recommend using this machine on 3/4" and thicker material. The banding feed channel is not designed to go much narrower than about 3/4".
Is the flat iron available for purchase?

This machine is a great time saver. It takes a few min to set up, but then it’s a wonderful tool for a lot of banding.

Once you have it set up for the bottom edge, it works great.

The best tools I bought for my small shop

I build and finish furniture and...
I build and finish furniture and kitchen cabinets out of a small shop. I recently picked up a kitchen cabinet job that was to be built as a frameless construction. Therefore, I needed an edgebander that was small enough that I could put aside when not in use. I found this edgebander after checking online sites. I have been extremely happy with the quality and ease of this product. It has already paid for itself in the time saved. We used to use an iron.Definitely a good purchase.

Does the job it's supposed to do at a high price
This is well built but very over-priced. I drilled a hole to hold the allen wrench that comes with it (see photo). I drilled through both layers of steel and then slightly into the rubber foot (with a smaller bit), so that it won't fall out. They should have done that for the price. Also would be more convenient if the banding support table could fold up for storage or at least have a quick release. You have to remove it with that loose allen wrench to make it more compact for storage. I added an indicator to know when to cut the banding so you don't waste too much. Again, should be included for the price. A simple vertical line on the fence is all that's needed. Like others have said, it takes a bit of futzing around with it to get the banding alinged on the low side, but it stays put once done.

Works great. Still trying to keep the banding from traveling but I assume I just need more practice.
