Sanding question

Post by bbeberle »

Now that I have a proper lathe :), I am getting all my stuff together! I am buying the arbors and buffing wheels from PIMO but I still need a sanding set up. I really like the one at Tyler's shop, it's a padded (foam) 6" disk I believe with velcro attached sanding sheets. I am getting a jacobs chuck at some point this week but if anyone knows where to get the sanding set up I described I would be VERY thankful. Thanks y'all.

Oh, I don't know. But I do hear there is a guy on this site that may know.

I purchased an arbor and disks from Kurt. I have also seen the pads sold at Woodcraft but I don't think they was as good a deal.

Kurt suggested McMaster and Carr for all your sanding pad desires. Ask him he'll send you product #s.
