    Sandpaper sources?

    Where are the best sources for 2in round velcro backed paper? I LOVE my sorby sandmaster, but even with the discount from Hartville... wow they get expensive at the rate I use them (was always taught... use sandpaper like someone else buys it... and I do)

    Most of the stuff that I have purchased from hartville has klinspor stamped on the back?

    I buy sand paper from Vince's Wooden Wonders

    http://www.vinceswoodnwonders.com/

    I like his product and he is very helpful.
    Thank you,

    I will 3rd Rich's vote. Vince's products are great.
    Try his SIA paper. It's pricey, but works well. It's not really paper, it's foam backed. Stays cool when hand sanding.

    For something different I'll recommend buying the 1yd Rhynogrip sheets from Industrial Abrasives and cutting your own.

    If you go with the bulk paper from Industrial abrasives, a punch like the one pictured makes cutting the discs easy work. Grind the teeth off a hole saw and sharpen. Use a 2 1/8" saw for 2" discs or a 2 1/4" saw for a slightly over sized disc.
