Missing Part:

I just received my spindle assembly and was very impressed with it. In fact I agree with most of the other reviews. It seems to be well made and has a good feel to it.
However, when I unpacked it, I looked for the missing table insert. After research, I discovered it is optional.
While I admit the table insert is optional for larger pieces, most of us are safety conscience and wouldn't consider working with something that put our hands in danger. It is my opinion that the table insert is worth... more info

3 INCH JET SPINDLE:

It is heavy and well made. Comes with one sleeve. It was a wait to obtain. Seems to have limited availability. Great for

Makes Your Benchtop Sander Work Like a "Floor Model":

This kit gives you a whole different range of capability with your Jet sander. Take this kit, put your sander on a stable tool stand, and then pat yourself on the back for the money you saved by not buying a floor model sander. With this kit, your sander tackles a much broader range of tasks.

I highly recommend it!
