Make a Drill Powered Disk Sander for Woodturning - Page 2

With the hot glue gun, put a strong bead around the disk, attach the rubber pad to it and trim it roughly to the disk.

Smear hot glue over the rubber pad and attach the velcro strip. If you are making a 3" pad, a strip of 2" velcro down the center will work well.

Now remount on the Jacob's chuck and turn down and clean.

Put one of those quarters on the velcro and you are set to go. I have trimmed a bit of the excess but even that is not necessary. It is certainly not necessary to cut to a perfect circle. All that is needed now is to mount the shaft in your electric drill and turn a bowl to sand.

I was going to replace this page but decided instead to do a variation on the theme.
