Mac, I didn't give very good dimensions last night. The pad centers are
about 3-1/4" in diameter and 1" thick (single piece) not 1-1/4" as I had
stated. I figure if nothing else a person could use them to hold sandpaper
while finishing bowls. This would keep your hands cool but give great
flexibility to the surface. I may be gloating prematurely, but @ free, one
can afford to gloat :-). One other thought is the fact they don't seem to
hurt floors while whirling around on the buffer. Now if I can conjer up a
homebrew drill chuck for these..................

I use a home made sander and hold the disks to the pad with carpet tape..

If they're an inch thick, you could also make a variation of the Dremal screw
arbor that they use for thick cloth buffing wheels.. just a screw on the end of
the shaft that screws into the back of the pad like a wood screw..
