    sanding discs on a lathe

    I'm about to outfit my lathe with a disc sanding set up. Before I get to the box/table, I want to make sure I do the wheel right. I'm thinking about just using some melamine with a permanent 6" faceplate. Would that be hefty enough (I'm doing a 15" disc) or should I back it with some 1/2" or...

    Ceramic Sanding Belts

    On a recent visit to my local Lowe's I had need of some sanding belts for a customer project. Upon looking at the what they sell I noticed a new item. It is sanding belts made - or marketed - by Shop Smith (yes, you read that right) with ceramic abrasives. They seemed somewhat pricey but I...

    Making a 10" radius sanding block

    I needed a 10" radius sanding block to radius the finger board on the bass guitar I'm making. The finger board radius must be the same at the nut and bridge or the guitar will not play correctly. The last guitar I made was at my buddies in northern IL and he had a set of store bought - 8" long...

    Best tool to sand complex rounded over plywood edge?

    Hello, NC Woodworkers! First post here. I routinely need to smoothe rounded over edges on very complex shapes cut out of 3/4" and 1.5" hardwood ply. I have been hand sanding using foam blocks but this has been extremely tedious and not that successful. Then I tried hand sanding with a strip...

    Duragrit TruSander carbide sanding block?

    Anyone tried one of these? http://duragrit.com/us/tools/handsand/index.html I ran across a review of a similar product (sup-r-sander) in an old issue of FWW (~2000). I try to avoid sandpaper most of the time (favoring a scraper) but still fall back to sanding for some tasks. Curious to hear...

    Sanding Glass

    So I just went to the store to buy a pane of glass for a picture frame. It turns out to be slightly, and I mean slightly, too big to fit into the frame. :BangHead::BangHead::BangHead: My question is, can I just take some sand paper and shave it down to fit?? Or would this be a bad idea...

    Sanding hard to reach spots.

    I was asked how I sand the inside of some of my forms the other day so here are two of the tools I've made to help in doing this task. The first two pictures show a 3/8" rod I fit a coupler on the end to hold a sanding disc. I did this by drilling a hole in a 5/8" piece of rod and fitting it...

    Bowl Sanding Kit?

    Hey Every Turner~! Does this looks like a good deal and if so does anyone have it, and either loves it or hates it? I ask because it only has one review. Would you recommend another brand? Or recommend a place to get more than 10 disc at a time? Thanks a Bunch~...

    A sanding solution for a Hegner scroll saw

    I used to use the sanders (like the one in the back in the following picture): These were great for smoothing out "wobbles" or messy places that "occasionally" happen when scrolling, and they worked exceptionally well on my old Delta saw. Unfortunately they won't fit in any clamps for the...

    Question about applying sanding sealer?

    Just wondering when and really how do I need to apply sanding sealer. I am going to try and turn some Spalted Red Oak. With being the open grain ScottM suggested getting some sanding sealer. So I got this from Woodcraft. It doesn't really give much direction as how to apply. It says apply...

    Sanding on the Lathe

    I turn long spindles on my lathe and use a mandrel. When sanding I usually use my sorby sandmaster but sometimes use long strips....Also should I have a "dont touch the wood approach" to sanding and not ever touch the wood when it is turning? Or how do others of you sand ????thanks

    Cutting and sanding large masonite boards?

    Hi all, I've been struggling to figure out how to cut some 4'x4' masonite panels to smaller sizes and sand the edges down so that they can be primed and used as painting canvases (up to 12"x12" and as small as 3"x3"). I've been using a standard table saw and hand sander, but it takes forever...

    Making your own sanding belts

    In the thread previously started I realized I need a question answered. A couple of years ago I was the lucky winner of a box of various grit sand paper from Klingspor. As Rob "McRabbett" mentioned in that thread it's all he uses and there's a good reason I've realized. What I've never...
