The sanders I designed are inexpensive and easy to make. You can make a bunch at one time in different sizes and grits or customize them to fit your current project. With a small, fine-grit screw sander, you can carve and sand the finest details.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">I make sanders from metal rods, bolts, and screws. The technique is\u00a0similar for all of them, so I\u2019ll demonstrate with a piece of metal rod and add a cushion. The cushion allows you to get a smooth finish without sanding away fine details. Without the cushion, you can use the sander to carve or sand sharp edges.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 480px\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-17940 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarving.zeeframes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/WEB-WCI84-Shopmade-Sanding-Drums-1-Landing-Page-1-150x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"185\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 243px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-17941 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarving.zeeframes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/WEB-WCI84-Shopmade-Sanding-Drums-2-Landing-Page-1-150x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"185\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px\">1: Prepare the rod. Cut a 1\/4&#8243; (6mm)-diameter rod to size and clamp it in a vise. Cut a 1 1\/2&#8243; (38mm)-long slot down the center of the rod with a hacksaw or rotary tool with a cutoff wheel. Clamp the rod in the rotary tool handpiece and lock the shaft.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 243px\">2: Attach the rag to the rod. Use the template to cut the sandpaper and rag to shape. Place the tab of the rag into the slot in the rod so 1\/8&#8243; to 1\/4&#8243; (3mm to 6mm) protrudes past the end of the rod. Wind the rag snugly around the rod while keeping the end even. Stop when you have approximately 2&#8243; (51mm) of rag left.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-17943 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarving.zeeframes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/WEB-WCI84-Shopmade-Sanding-Drums-3-Landing-Page-1-150x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"185\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 243px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-17944 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarving.zeeframes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/WEB-WCI84-Shopmade-Sanding-Drums-4-Landing-Page-1-150x185.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"185\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 231px\">3: Attach the sandpaper. Position the sandpaper, grit down, so it overlaps the unwrapped piece of cloth. Wind the sandpaper with the cloth around the rod tightly, keeping the end straight as you wrap.<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 243px\">\n<p class=\"p1\">4: Lock the sandpaper in place. When you have wound all of the sandpaper onto the rod, hold it in place with your right thumb as you wind thread onto the bottom of the sandpaper approximately a dozen times. I carefully use the rotation of the tool, but you can do it by hand. Dab the thread with glue to hold it in place.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarving.zeeframes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/WEB-Shopmade-Sanding-Drums-Templates.pdf\">CLICK HERE<\/a> to download the Templates.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Changing the Sandpaper<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\">When the sandpaper gets beat up, cut the thread and undo the sandpaper from the cloth. Then, reverse the sandpaper, recut the ends, wrap it back up, add new thread and glue, and continue sanding. When the sandpaper is worn out on both sides, cut the thread, remove the sandpaper, and replace it with a new piece. Do not throw the worn piece away, because there will be enough perfectly good sandpaper left in the center portion to make one or more of the small sanders that will fit onto a deck screw shaft.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>About the Cushion<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\">I have experimented with various materials to act as a cushion under the sandpaper and found that ordinary rags work just as well as anything else. The more material you wrap onto the rod before you put the sandpaper on, the softer the sander will be. Craft stores sell foam sheets that also work; experiment with different materials to find the hardness that will suit your project.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Making a Hard Sander<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p2\">Use the hard sander template to cut the sandpaper. Insert the tab of sandpaper into the slot, wrap the sandpaper around the rod, and lock it in place with glued thread.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Materials &amp; Tools<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Materials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><i>\u00a0<\/i>\u2022 Metal rod, 1\/4&#8243; (6mm) dia.:\u00a0 3 3\/4&#8243; (95mm) long<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022\u00a0Shop rag, 2&#8243; wide and up to 12&#8243; long (51mm x 305mm)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022 Flexible cloth-backed sandpaper (grit of choice): 2&#8243; x 6&#8243;\u00a0 (51mm x 152mm)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022 Glue<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022 Thread: 6&#8242; (1524mm) long<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>Tools<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022 Hacksaw or rotary tool with cutoff wheel<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u2022 Rotary tool handpiece<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bill Keanner is a self-taught woodcarver who has spent more than 30 years expanding and improving his carving talents in the Crowsnest Pass in southern Alberta, Canada.
