      Hey Ted!! Strange seeing you out in the wild lol. Love your channel. And I agree, what's happening during his colonoscopys that would make him think of the procedure when working with solvents, sand paper an Mason jars?! Maybe I shouldn't ask, I have too much respect for Dan to make him relive that experience.

      Nah, the thing about sandpaper is it’s virtually useless once the sharper grains get squared off. There is still room for gunk to get between the grains of sand but even once you get that gunk out of the sand paper its about worthless. If you run your finger across the sand paper you can feel the texture. Still not good… run your finger across new versus old sand paper…

    @beautifulveneer 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video--I never realized you could clean them this way. Before soaking them overnight in blade and bit cleaner you can try scrubbing with a hard wire brush under running hot water (possibly soaking a bit first). I learned that that is sufficient for many cases. If that fails then try the longer soak method described here. Someone below complained that the sandpaper is useless after the granules round off so the cleaning is pointless. It takes time for the dulling to happen--clogging doesn't mean your paper has worn down, so you can clean to restore to almost new.

    Colonoscopy? Dan didnt say where he was during the process. Funny stuff. Great tip. And it works very well. I did start using a short length of 4 inch PVC to wrap the sandpaper to dry. Cut about the same length as the drum.

    though i really try not to sand because I really don't like to, this is a good tip to know. Thank you for sharing!

    I will try this to clean my belts for reuse. I bought several brass bristle brushes, and after two passes thru the sander with whatever tropical wood I’m sanding, I then slightly open the lid while it is still running and run the brass brush side to side a few times. I get a much longer use time from the belt before it gets caked up with resin.

    resins get dissolved in fat or oils, if it's not damaging to the tape you can use it. I use table oil to clean my hands sometimes. You could use soap to clean off the oil.

    I always cleaned my sanding paper using a root brush and running warm water, works too :)

    That is a neat trick, I’m going to try it on my sanding drums that I use on my drill and see if it works to rejuvenate those drums to new again.
