Electric Sanders

Electric sanders, random orbit sanders or palm sanders are priceless when they're used at the right time for the proper project, but if you have a sander in your hand don't come within touching distance of an antique. One touch of a sander on an antique and you can figure that the antique value has been lowered by at least half.

There, now that I have that out of my system we can go on to the real value of sanders, mainly random orbit sanders and palm sanders.

Random orbit sander

A random orbit sander will remove a lot of stock in a hurry and will give a super fine surface, but you have to be careful not to remove too much wood. If you're not experienced with an electric sander and have just a normal amount of wood to sand off a finishing sander would be the ideal tool to have, they're fast and efficient and a good sander to learn power sanding with.

If you're new to electric sanders you may wonder what the difference is between a palm sander and a finishing sander. None, some finishing sanders have a handle, like the half sheet finishing sander, but the smaller finishing sanders fit in the palm of your hand, so they became known as palm sanders.

Absense of belt sanders

Please notice the absence of belt sanders. Belt sanders have their place, but their place isn't around furniture refinishing. They can chew a big chunk out of a table top in about two seconds, in fact you could do considerable damage in one second very easily.

Random orbit sanders can remove a lot of wood in a hurry for rough work and can gently smooth wood for a final finish. Random Orbit Sanders
