Thanks for the video. I have a Task Force palm sander that I bought years ago. It was designed to be used with hook and loop sandpaper with a particular configuration of holes. I'm unable to find this replacement paper. But when you mentioned the clamp on your sander, I took a good look at my sander again and found two clamps. Thank you for saving me a $50 +/- purchase. For any reader with the same issue, the sandpaper has to be cut longer so that the paper can tuck under the clamps.

Thanks, managed to use one myself for the first time after watching this tutorial :-) - I'm useless with power tools lol

Pretty descriptive, don't you think?! 😆

Hi! What grit sandpaper should I use for an oak wood coffee table ?

I'm using my dad's 30 years old black and decker palm sander I've noticed that it vibrates my hands and it makes my hands tingle after using it alot

OK I apologize as I just posted this question on another one of your videos but you mention a “special” bag that you use to collect the dust inside your shop vac. Can you elaborate on what this is? Do you need to remove the filter inside your shop vac? I have a DeWalt orbital sander that I can attach to my shop vac but I am concerned about damaging the motor. Thank you very much.

The bags I use are these: amzn.to/2Ud6rTJ Find the ones that will fit your shop vac. I install this and the dust goes right into the bag! Hope that helps!

[@natashabelize76]

Did you make a plastic pokey by yourself or you bought it? Thank you for your videos

[@RootsWingsHome]

Did you like this very technical term 😂 it came with my sander. If you have a sander that doesn't have one, you could probably google the brand and get one for a few bucks!
