The Sandmaster comes complete with a Velcro covered 2" sponge pad which allows for the easy changing of abrasive discs. The aluminum oxide discs come in a variety of grits from 60 to 400. The adjustable head lets you reach even the most difficult areas. As an option for your larger turnings, a 3" head and sanding discs are also available for greater efficiency. The Sandmaster becomes an even more versatile tool when the head is removed and replaced by a pigtail mandrel and bowl mop. Made of fine grade cotton these mops are ideal for applying oils or buffing waxes to produce a professional finish. The following video is from Robert Sorby and gives a complete demonstration of the sanding and finishing process using the Sandmaster.

    Sandmaster Customer Reviews 1) Submitted by Jon, from Endicott, NY on 1/16/2008 I had my doubts when I ordered this but it’s cut my sanding time by at least 75% with better results … Works great …IMHO the biggest drawback is the limited quantity of sandpaper you get with your order. 2) Submitted by Jack, from Travis AFB, CA on 2/24/2007 Works geat, gets in to small areas, and with the variety of sandpaper takes the wood down to a ultra smooth finish. Handle could be a bit longer.
