great video and idea. I have been making them and also show how to do it on my utube channel. I even show how to make the ones like you by with the metal top instead of wood. wood ones work just as well.
Been using separate cheap 5 packs of the mandrels but next time I will make my own. two tips I have for when you have multiple sanding mandrels. 1) I write what grit that mandrel is for on it. 2) I grabbed an old scrap piece of 2 x 4 and offset drilled 1/4" holes and ca glued a 6.2mm rare earth magnet in the hole and then you can put the mandrels into those holes and the magnet will hold them in so they are not laying about your shop.
Another great tip video. I talked to one seller/maker who tried to tell my how much they cost to make. You’re correct, they cost pennies to make, even if you have to purchase all the materials. Thanks for sharing.
Great tip. Yes, I am one of those who ruined my sanding disk by over heating it. I will be making my own and it will save me money and will have fun making them. Being an upholster I understand the density of the foam that you used. I really enjoyed this really great tip and I am looking forward to more of your youtubes. Yes, I did subscribe. Thanks.
Yes Dean, I have made mandrels for each of the grits that I have both in 2” and 3”. I can sand from 80 grit to 600 grit. I used 1/2 inch carpet padding for the cushion material. The spigot jaws on one of my chucks closes small enough to hold the small screw driver bits so no need to use my jacobs chuck and draw bar.
Dean, I like your videos. This is regards to your video on home made sanding disks. Where did get the two inch self sticking Velcro? Thanks for your help. rd
I’ve been doing this for many years. Works very good. I made mine using MDF and foam from floor pads. I assembled mine by first roughly cutting the MDF round just over 2” and 3”. Drill a hole for the drive bit and the glue them in. I then used the drill chuck in the headstock. It’s better if the wood disk is smaller that bigger than the sanding disk so you are less likely to touch the inside wall of whatever you’re sanding. Do you know if you can buy only the hook side? You don’t need the loops unless you plan to glue sandpaper on to it Thanks for the video
Greg that is the great thing about these any wood will work and any foam will work I actually use several densities of foam. I have not located anywhere you can buy just the hook but I will keep looking and if you find hook only please let me and everyone else know. Thanks for Watching!!!
nicht ganz so gut das ganze, die drehzahl deines accuschraubers ist zum schleifen viel zu langsam. dadurch ist dein ganzes quick change umsonst. wer mit dem accu schrauber schleifen muss ist sowiso ein murkser-stümper.
Thank For the opportunity to create mine ❤❤❤

I've seen you use that skew to great advantage. I just got a new skew and wondered what angle you are grinding on that. Thanks! Enjoyed the video.
Jack take a look at this video I talk about the skew and the angles that I use. I think this may help you. ua-cam.com/video/_m-M0e24glA/v-deo.html

Dean, I like your videos. This is regards to your video on home made sanding disks. Where did get the two inch self sticking Velcro? Thanks for your help. rd
Roger There are links in the discription to the velcro to order through amazon.
Where do you get the self adhesive 2 inch paper, all i can find are the disks with the fuzzy backing for velcro?
The disk are velcro backed I used the hook velcro on the holder link is in the description.
Where did you get the 2” velcro
amazon links are in the description. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for the video. you gained a sub and a like:)
Awesome, thank you!
This is fantastic. Thanks Dean. - I'm having trouble finding reasonably priced foam you showed. Any sources you can point me to?
packaging material first, knee pads from dollar store work.
@@DeansWoodworking Thanks Much!
no problem good luck and have fun!!

@@DeansWoodworking Klingspor has 12" x 18" hook side with adhesive
Where did you get the sticky paper, I could only find the Velcro type on Amazon
The sand paper is not sticky backed it hooks to the velcro I put on the holder.
@@DeansWoodworking thanks Dean, I understand.
