Micro sanding tool


Recommended Posts

Hello friends :)

long time ago i had the chance to buy few brand new tools of proxxon from some guy who bought them and never used them ...

one of the tools called Delta its a bit big for our hobby.. but I knew a day would come and I would find use of this tool 
so today i had to sand some aria in the ship but it was very difficult to reach this spot..

so i made a very handy and precise tool for my Delta 

i used an aluminum strip for the tool

firs i made an hole of 10 mm to feat the delta screw

than i cute the shape that i want (by using a table saw , and sanding disc)

and after all i twisted the aluminum to useful shape 

and after all i used an sticky sand paper 

and its working amazing !!!!!!!!!!!

i hope you will find it useful :)

Best regards,

    I have had the Craftsman version of that tool for years.  The biggest difference between the two tools is that mine is cordless with a rechargeable lithium ion battery.  It has that offset in the tool sanding and cutting blades that lets you get in real close.  It's a very handy feature that remodelers find very useful for under cutting trim mouldings to install new flooring, since the tool itself can literally get flush with floor to make the cut.

Y.T that is true when you have access to that aria ;)

but in my case you cant reach the spot without risking the model ,but with this tool you can get a perfect sanding very quick and must important without taking any risk :dancetl6:
