I second that.

Additionally, by backing your sandpaper with a block you can ensure crisp and accurate shaping.

When I want the best handle possible, I will only use the belt sander for rough shaping. I form and finish all of the contours by hand. The slowness of hand sanding is actually an advantage when it comes to attaining good finish.
