I have an old house. From time to time, one door or another will stick.
I assume it's because of the house settling in an uneven manner.
In the past, I've used a surform tool to shave off about 1/16" or so.
This is a bit of work in an awkward location (top of door) on a surface
that is difficult to stabilize. And, if I'm not careful, there is a
tendency to knock chips off the side.
I have 4-5 doors that are sticking that I have been procrastinating
fixing. I'm thinking about buying a little power sander to make the task
a little easier. I'd be interested in suyggestions for what type of
sander to get. Orbital? Belt? Or something else?
I see some small orbital sanders with a dust collector. Do they work?
That would make clean up a lot easier.
I don't know but that is a good idea I will try next time with my small
orbital sander. I usually use an old surface planer.
I assume you mean something like this: http://tinyurl.com/97yg45r

Neither. Something inherited from my father - hand powered.
