No, not the swirleys that were executed in the High School boys room
by the bullies du jour, but the marks left on wood from sandpaper..

I usually am fanatical in my sanding through the grit range and I'm
using two well respected sanders, PC333VS and Festool FEQ125. But
still, even after 220 I can shine the light on cherry and walnut and
still see the damn swirley things. So, technique or tool? Which is it?
I hear lots of guys say they sand down to 180 and then apply
oil/stain/shellac/ whatever. No way I could ever do that with the
un-smoothness of my boards. So, anyone have some suggestions or ideas
or whatever it is that may help me in getting my sanding done
efficiently and acceptably??

ROY!
