I have been prowsing the Internet looking for a belt sander. and, yes, I have found a lot of choices. Here is one that looks pretty good. It's available from a wood carving web site called "Chipping Away", this is called
"The Ultimate Power Sharpener":

Before I left the site, I found this unique sanding system: It's called "Kirjes-Gueinevere Inflatable Sanding System":

After looking at both these systems I am blown away to say the least. BTW, they are both from Sweden.

I originally had in mind that I wanted something I could sand wood scales with.
This inflatable sanding system looks very promising and very interesting.

Any opinions out there?
