well I was wanting to sand these pieces to the same contour yet not have them glued together, so I figured I would use my oscillating sander but it was impossible to clamp these parts together and have enough travel to sand them properly…..well the Milwaukee Gen 2 drill came to the rescue having the increased RPM it was enough to sand these perfectly…..

well yes and no, I just used the rubber tube from my oscillating sander with ready rod long enough to go into chuck with flat washers and nuts to tighten….

I made a drill sander the other day. taped sandpaper to a pencil. worked decently well except by the time I was done the paper and the part of the pencil I put into the jaws of my drill were pretty beat up..

Very cool, but I have yet to come to a definitive guess for what that might be….

elderly neighbor came over with a couple pieces of Mahogany that came out of a window sill (didn’t want to throw it away) so I planed it down and made him a cooling rack for his wife with some of it….
