Wrap finishing....

Occasionaly we all get plagued with little bumps of dust, or "fuzzies", tag ends or whatever in a wrap finish and it just bugs us to death. Recently I was working one out and my wife came in and asked me what I was doing. I told her I was gluing a piece of 2000 grit sanpaper to a craft stick with double sided foam tape so I could safely take care of a few bumps in a wrap.

She took a look at the sanding board I had made and walked out of the room. In just a couple of minutes she came back and handed me one of the absolute best additions to my tool bench that has ever been laid on it. It is a sanding board made for nail care. it is made of foam and has a rough board (about 1500 grit), a smoothing board (about 2000 grit) and a polishing side that is around 2500 grit. this is one of the best tools that I have seen for taking care of little issues in wraps. i used it on a bamboo I am just finishing prior to the last dip and the wraps are the best I have ever done.

today she went to our local Wally and returned with 2 more of them that had 4 sanding surfaces...can't wait to try them.

Don't know what my neighbors are gonna think if they here me calling out to my wife in the van "Honey, can you get me a set of the pink and blue and the chartreuse and purple fingernail emery board?" LOL. My wife has a board that is very smooth, 1500 maybe. Something tells me my little boy is gonna look very puzzled when mom asks where it is. Great suggestion.
