Has anyone used one of these? I was helping a buddy this weekend and he showed me a video of a guy using one, but I can't find much info - this is about it... https://www.wurthlac.com/storefront/...c/prodET2.html

This really seems like a superior way to edge sand, to me. Leave each edge say a 32nd oversize and sand it dead square and parallel. There is a similar product here...

Thoughts? The Woodtek one is $37 and discs are $7 each - you have to set up an account to see the actual Edgetech price.

A solution for a problem with technique. With a properly set up saw and
a good blade the most you should need to clean up an edge would be to
simply make a pass or two with a scraper or lite hand sanding.

If you are taking off 1/32 you would surely wear out the sand paper
rather quickly.


So you've never used one, Leon?



Many grits are offered, seems that you will be changing paper to get rid
of the coarse sanding marks. Start with a finer grit and you will
likely burn the wood.
