Wood Cookie Sander Stand

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Created a two drawer stand for wood cookie sander. This is a bench model random orbital sander attached to a two drawer mobile stand. The stand has two full extension drawers that hold eight different grit hook and loop 9” abrasive disks. The abrasives are kept from curling using a sheet of clear plastic as a weight. The clear plastic also allows us to note the grit size.Since the wood cookies are 3/16” to 1/4” we kept sanding our fingertips so we designed a pressure board. The pressure board device looking like an unshelled peanut allows for two hands to press the wood cookie against the abrasive. There are two styles of pressure boards. One is backed with 400 grit PSA abrasive while the second has a non-woven (Scotchbrite style) pad attached.The mobile cart is low in height allowing us to sand while standing but allow us to keep our arms straight. The cart top is high pressure laminate attache to birch veneer plywood as is the entire cart. The top Black edging is T-molding. Overall the cart is finished with Tung oil.Lots of wood cookies to sand for our R-tist wood buddy to create painted scenes for Christmas 2020 ornaments.
