Curious??? When you do glass work, what type of sanding blocks are you using? Are you getting good results with that?

OR

Usually I make all my blocks with any profile or angle cut in it faced with cork and then I use PSA Abrasives 3-M or Klingspor for large stuff I go with a long 48” metal file and keep a truing table (Abrasive faced straight 10’Aluminum rectangle tube) to touch up my sanding tools.

steve, its frickin cold up here.. do you know anything about the 45 sitting at Bradford in Freeport.. I wonder if I could spark those Italian weasals up ? I had a bunch of 10 litre ones for awhile.

I got no info on it what does it have BPM's?

probably not the answer your lookin for but most of mine are just stuff i've ran across through the years. I have many many different types and all have a different purpose. For just flat work i have several of the type you can get at any body shop supply place, the wood handle with the aluminum shoe although i replace the surface par on mine with a 3/16th inch thick rubber pad type materiel i get. I rarely use any of the short solid rubber ones although i do have a smaller version of the one mentioned above. For really small stuff sometimes i just use a paint stick wrapped with a piece of PSA paper. For bigger longer blueprint type jobs i have a four footer that works with roll out PSA paper although i have to confess i usually fall back on the tried and true standard sizes of my 9.5 incher. The one on the right has by far the most miles of any block i own (that would be this guy ) and the one on the left if ok but just for detailing primer fills on mostly true flat stuff, i just dont care for the solid rubber ones most times ( and . . .that would be this guy ) .

dunno

got a full set of these i picked up at the RC model show here in Toledo. They have turned out to be quite handy.

I use these on fiberglass, or automotive... anytype of surface really. And they take the abuse, by far the best blocks I have ever bought, and they come in almost any configuration for what you are doing.
