    Thumbs up Detail sanding tool.

    Hi Guys,

    I wasn't sure whether to post this here or on "Tool Gloat". One of the engineering firms that I go to that allows me to rummage in their scrap bin and off cuts box, offered this to me...

    No I didn't get it given, I put a fiver into the "tea box"...
    It is a detail sanding stick. It came complete with a bag of ten spare abrasive tape loops. You depress the spring loaded bit on the end to change the loop. It is used for fine detail work. I'm told that the abrasive loops are diamond grit, though the one on the stick is 120 grit and the loops in the bag are 320 grit. The whole thing is about seven inches long and 6 mm wide.
    Best Regards:
    Baron J.

    That's a nifty looking tool, all you need now is to find a job for it. Nice find by the way, probably cost more than a fiver for A belt let alone 10 of them,
