I have a question for all you cabbers. On my machine the drip system for the 2.5 drum is insufficient. I have 2.5 inches of belt but my current water setup only wets about half an inch of a section. How can i increase the area of water?

You don't say if you are plumbed to a water supply or using a pump but it sounds like not enough water flow. I learned cabbing on my dad's old split drum 8" x 3" sanding drums. They had 1/4" valves at the top of Lortone hoods. I plumbed them with 1/4" copper tubing to a water supply. With the valves open they sprayed not only the entire 3" drum but me from the chest down and the floor in a 6" circle. If you are plumbed try cleaning the valves and tubing. Sometimes "stuff" clogs them up. If you are using a submersible pump it might not have enough capacity.

I have that issue, so I just increase the water flow a bunch until the whole thing gets wet anyway. Steve
