How to Save money on detail sanders by using abrasive paper rolls

Detail sanders are one of the finest tools for polishing wood surfaces to a perfectly smooth finish. But it often costs a lot to replace detail sander sheets. Luckily, there's a way to save some moolah on your sanding sheet needs.

Detail sander sheets are currently £7 for 5 at B&Q but for the same price you can buy a 5 metre roll of abrasive paper, which can be cut to the same shape as the detail sander sheet and can be glued to one of the old worn out sheets, then when that piece wears out you can glue another piece on top of that. You can get approximately 50 detail sander sheets from one 5m roll of abrasive paper.
