I bet you could mod a Norelco to go down to the bone

It's not supposed to be a serious sander, it's like the Fisher Price lil buddy sander to take the lead paint off those Chinese toys.

Appreciate the comments-Was considering one of the 3D sanders, but I'll look into the mouse sander.

Go to lowes, get a black and decker for a few bucks more or something, probably better quality then this.

Surprised they haven't made the USB powered one yet. I mean honestly, I like to watch porn and sand at the same time. Now there's a great idea, USB powered blowjob machine

It looks like the three rings of sandpaper in this picture total no more than 5 square inches. I don't know how anyone could have thought that such a design was a good idea.

Biggest problem from the reviews seem to be the fact that the sanding discs are nowhere to be found.

#13 Black and Decker? It's the same or worse quality as Craftsman

One thing missing from this topic. It's 10 freakin' bucks. Who out there thinks they will get a serious power tool for 10 bucks?
A linear sander is the best choice, because wood is linearly grained. If you're cleaning rust off your zuchini, a wire brush will be better. If you're doing 3D sanding, why? Put some paint stripper on the part, get out the 50 cent sheet of sandpaper and cut it to the size you need.
However, considering how much power tools cost, if this gets you 1/10th the way through any project and you have to rubber cement some new pieces of sandpaper on that you cut from a sheet, for 10 bucks it may still be worth the 25 square inches of shelf space it takes up. That's kinda the way I feel about my dremel tool too, it's real handy for the first 20 seconds the bit in it lasts.

This sander would ruin furniture - even for automotive work - STAY AWAY
