Man, I'd be afraid to walk on this..

Here's the Q:

If sanding is supposed to be with the grain, how does one sand
parquet
floors?

I'm guessing that instead of a drum sander, mebbe they use one
of those big
jitter-bug-type sanders that HD used to rent.

For this one you need a special bent-belt sander...
