So my storage shed that I had built less than 2 years ago, well it was built with and OSB ramp (?!) and I could tell that the OSB really did NOT enjoy life outdoors.
Went to home Depot, got some 3/4" pressure treated ply sized 4x4 and went for the replacement just to figure out they used 1/2" OSB.
Instead of wasting that plywood, I opted to taper down the edge at the door to allow the door to close and still use the 3/4" ply.
But how to taper it?
Well I do still have that cheap Harbor Freight 4x24 belt sander, sure that will work...
I get about 90% of the way through sanding to thickness needed with the right enough taper when this happened...
I 100% have no idea how this could even happen, but here you go...
Just for reference these are Powertec sanding belts from Amazon, and they have been on the sander / in my shop for 2.5 years...
