I purchased a basic Covington WBS - Wet Belt Sander - that did not come with the spray nozzle (CSN808) that attaches to the bottom of the also non present water supply L-valve. As I planned on using a gravity water feed with no pressure, I figured I could make something to distribute the water evenly across the belt out of a couple of old credit cards and a ty-wrap. First after introducing the cards to my meteorite hunting magnet to remove all data, I super-glued the two cards together in a tee shape. Second, I bent the top card in a dust pan shape. Remember, first things first, but not necessarily in that order. You probably should make the adjustment slot for an 8-32 screw in the other card somewhere along about here. Third, I bent the bottom card to fit inside the unit by the water entry. Fourth, I drilled the 8-32 screw hole in the metal cover and attached the device.

Great use for all of those credit cards & membership cards that always come in the mail. What glue are you using ?

Loctite Super Glue Easy Squeeze. It's been several months and they are still together, no divorce visible on the horizon.

Thanks. I've used carpet scraps and pieces of innertube as spreaders, but never thought of using credit cards. I use those for scraping mud out of my saws during cleanup.
