Woodworking Tip #5: Velcro's New Coat

When the good guys at Woodworker's Supply offered to send me a sampler of their Black-Max ceramic sanding discs, it was a no-brainer to accept.  Thing was I received 5" PSA discs, but my sander pad is hook and loop.  The adaptation was as easy as first attaching a disc of real fine 320 grit H&L sandpaper, then sticking the new PSA Black-Max disc to it.  This worked even better after some of the grit got peeled off by the adhesive.  Thing was too I was working on a deck instead of furniture, but the Black-Max ate through beams and balusters like there was no tomorrow.
