    Default Sandpaper

    I was in the shop today and took a picture of how I use my hand sanding sandpaper. I like to tear it up into 1/8 sheets, it seems like I get more use out of the paper that way.

    I really like garnet for bare wood and the gold 3M 216u paper for everything else.

    That looks like how my daddy used to hang the toilet roll sheets in our outdoor dunny. We knew we were in for a bad day when he'd look up at breakfast and say "Today is stock removal day". We all tried to hold it in until "polishing day".

    I like this idea better... I was thinking about placing mine into ziploc baggies after cutting them down.

    Why on earth haven't I thought of that....? I just keep the sheets in one of those paper organizers you have in the office, your way is a lot more tidy and makes more space on the workbench.

    Thanks Charlie, I'm making on this weekend
