Hey all well I'm new to the carvewright world but not new to word working.
I'm more of a lathe user myself making intriquite lathe items using segmented lathe techniques.
Well I know that didnt have anything to do with my tip but just sort of where it came from.
Buy 3M drywall sanding pads. For those unfamiliar they look like a screen door screen.
Why these for your sanding mop? Well for one you can cut them into individual strings they have sanding ability on both sides when you cut them into individual strings they still have all the grit still on them. You can buy them typically up to 220 grit
They last forever or it seems like it. They wont come appart either. Wanna get into that tinneyest little crack easy without cutting everything else down? Well there ya go.
Making the mop is no different than making anyother mop but easier take your paper fold it up into a square take the square over to your drill press drill a hole in it put a bolt and washer on both sides and a nut tighen up tight as you can get it.
Then just cut out the mop you want and there ya go.
Save urself some good money on sanding products and get better results.
Anyway thats my 2 cents for my first post hehe.
Good carving all.
