For my next project there's a lot of sanding to do.

'A lot' means hours & hours, curves, corners, holes etc. - the stuff that's not easy & undoable with classic powered sanding tools.

The only way to do it properly is with sanding 'ribbons' or bands.

Problem with these things is that they are relatively short and that they become uncomfortable after a while.

So instead of continuing the job the way it was I searched for a way to make the process more efficient - you're a rebel or you're not.

For some reason my backpack was hanging around in my workshop and that gave me inspiration for this hack.

Simple, cheap & useful.

Sometimes I even surprise myself.

Step 1: Load Straps

Grab a couple (2) load straps - is this really the correct term? - and cut them about 30cm from that-metal-piece-I-don't-know-the-name.

Wanna burn the edges? Burn the edges!

Step 2: Sanding Paper

Since you're going to do a lot of sanding some real sanding paper might be useful.

Tear down as much strips as you need.

And some more since it's just fun doing this and also because you always need more than you thought..

Insert the strip in that metal-piece - TEETH against GRIT - and believe it or not but you already have the job done.

What to say? Happy sandiiiiiiiiiiing!!!
