    I bought Jill's Knew concept saw off her. Love it. won't fit in the foredom though.



    oddly, my customs form from OF said it was exempt. maybe because it was swiss made and being imported back into europe?
    Do you screw the end with a screwdriver Liz? Mine don't come off.

    Ah of course, I've just realised what you ment earlier - Carole's completely right. You have to tighten the little screw at the end. It squeezes the rubber and makes it bulge out at the sides to hold the sanding drum in place. x

    My favourites are burrs, sanding mandrels ( use small elastic band to hold in place ).. But ultimately it's got to be my wolf belt sander. Super little thing and quite a time saver too.

    The split mandrels with different grades of sandpaper yes, and I tend to use the belt sander on items I have cast using cuttlefish. Usually where I want the top part textured and the underside perfectly smooth and level

    I also use it to prep surfaces for soldering, to do the donkey work before refining with hand files, and as the belts are available in varying grits it's just a great time saving tool.
