At the same time, for finer work on the flatter surfaces, the multi tool with sander head really shines.
#Multi tool sander pro
That material came off quickly with the rotating disc sander that I put into my cordless drill (haven't decided to spring for a pro quality sander polisher yet). It had ping pong ball sized clumps of dried resin on the nose (previous repair work or some type of resin accident in his garage?). So my conclusion for now, based on what you've said and what I've experienced directly, is that the oscillating multi tool with sanding head attachment is an option in some cases, but can't remove material as quickly as a sander with a rotating disc.Ī couple days after posting this, a neighbor gave me his 11'2" Hobie longboard to repair. the triangular sanding pad on a multi tool? I could perhaps see the benefit of using a circular tool when polishing a board (something that will never happen in my garage anyhow because I just don't see the point in polishing something that gets heavy use-like polishing an offroad race truck), but if a sander/polisher is better, why? Is this tool a bad idea? Is there some divine purpose for using the spinning disc of a sander/polisher vs.
I even asked a local shaper/glasser if he's ever tried anything besides a sander/polisher, and he looked at me with a bit of an eye roll. StandinDan has used one of these multitools with a blade attachment to shave off deck pads before, but I haven't heard of anyone using them to sand boards. (Wife was happy about less dust on the washer/dryer too.) In both cases it has worked amazingly well, and when hooked up to the shop vac via the dust tube, I've also seen about a 90% dust reduction in the work area. So I thought, "Why not try this little animal for repairing boards?" I tested it on some epoxy repair work on the nose of my 9'2" T Patterson and then to smooth down the mega reinforcing I've done to the deck of a 8' Riviera Nugget. It sands like a tiger tearing into a poodle and has literally saved me dozens and dozens of hours sanding by hand on the furniture project.
(It can also handle some more spread out areas without much trouble at all). It has a triangular sanding head which enables the user to attack small spots and corners in wood projects with ease. Recently, I've been repurposing some old china hutches/display cabinets into a wall of built in bookshelves, and in the process started using my father in law's Sears oscillating muti tool. I've tried them myself, but have not been overwhelmed with their suitability for the job of working on surf and paddle boards of course my skill level is much lower than someone who does board work for a living. So I know that the sander/polishers (especially the Makitas) seem to be the favorites when it comes to sanding and polishing boards, even doing repair work.
