Interesting... how time flies by. I guess in 2021 "Snowperson" was a thing... then again, I'm from outside the US and we are still allowed to say Snowman.
Very thoughtful: safety blends into artistic. I came here just wondering what coarsely sanded glass would look like to hide my ugly home made little solar panels (sure, they'll have to be a little bit larger to make up for a little light reflected the wrong way, but they are already too large for the application). Thanks for the detail!
Water does cut down on dust, but the speed of the sander aerosolizes the water (you're covered in mist within seconds) and those droplets can contain glass (and abrasive) particulates. Wearing a mask with ANY glass cutting/grinding operation is a good idea.
Lol. This video is a joke posted by a clown. Incorrectomundo. Wearing a mask is NOT a 'good idea' it is, in fact, in most civilised countries, a legal requirement (due to the risk of silicosis) including your own. OHSA demands that for indoor or enclosed area processes that create silicate dusts a respirator with an Assigned Protection Factor of at least 10 be worn at all times.

Hi Kent, what model of machine you use? Can provide detail? Model no and machine maker.
Hi there can you please tell me what the best type of sander I need to sand and polish glassware.
what is the material of sading belt?
Thanks!
Is the cork belt just naked cork, or do you put pumice or something on it?
It's just naked. The material does a good job of pre-polish on it's own.
Dust is not an issue when water is involved
