Default drum sander usage - your preferences

is quick and easy.I use it to do glue lines and with working with woods that
have a lot of figure.

Hello All,
I just acquired a drum sander and was looking over the available grits
and applications in the owners manual. My goal was to use it mostly
for finish sanding with occassional rough sanding or glue line
removal. I have thickness planer too and a sampling of hand held
sanders from over the years. So I guess my question is ; What do you
use you drum sander for and what grit wraps are you using the most?
(My current project is a cherry bed and a dining room table, chairs
to follow).
Thanks in advance for your opinions and suggestions.

Marc
