Sandrite mfg. for sanding?

(1/2) > >>

TC209X50:
Is anyone using the Sandrite mfg. inflatable pneumatic drum and flap/brush style sander heads for riser handle or rough limb shaping? just wondering how well these would work? any experience is appreciated.
Thanks

Stagmitis:
i have a Grizzly drum/flap sander I use only for sanding the back and belly glass, side profile and handle. This is done after the bow is tillered and string aligned. 

Its a game changer that saves tons of time with final hand sanding but cant imagine profiling a bow this way  :bigsmyl:

I could see those soft inflatable drums as being useful for some applications. What are you considering using the drum on?

Mad Max:
I do this much with my edge sander, all 4 sides and then round over with rasp and sand paper.

Just trying to reduce some hand sanding after profiling by using the brushes and then maybe some work on the limbs with drum. The arthritis is real! lol :biglaugh:
