Default A Great Way to Sand Carvings

Hi All,

I have been using the Mini Mop sanding discs from Klingspor for several years to sand and clean up my carvings They work great to quickly sand rough spots and smooth out uneven surfaces. They work much faster than the the 3M bristle discs. They are a bit pricey but I find the price well worth it for the time they save.
When you see them in this link, the price for the refills is a pack of four. Follow this link and search for mini mop.
