    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...

    Finish sanding small pieces?

    I was using my 5" ROS to finish a large box last night and had the thought that a smaller box would be almost impossible to sand this way. I had read of using an inverted 1/4 sheet ROS finish sander, seems like a good idea. :dontknow: Just curious how some of you do it???

    Sand & Suck Gloat

    Well, Paul made me a deal I couldn't refuse, and I've had my eye on that dang sander a while, so here's what I picked up yesterday: This thing's a beast compared to my 6x36 Harbor Freight sander, which served well enough for a couple years. My buddy Gary (NCTurner) is scoring my old HF...

    Cut & Sand in one step?

    A buddy of mine came across this ... I had never heard of it. Have you? http://www.finalcutblade.com/finalcut_videos.php Seems that would be a problem on a good quality carbide blade because the teeth are actually wider than the metal of the blade (thus after the cut the a gap would exist...

    Strip or sand away finish

    I need to remove the finish on a gunstock. The finish is aaadescribed as a polyurethane laquer and is, supposedly, difficult to remove. Generally, I just use strip-ez but thought I'd ask advice on this particular finish. Being that it's only a gunstock, perhaps it would be as easy in ther long...
