    Default Best way to store a ROS

    What is the best way to store a Random Orbit sander with the velcro type base between projects?

    eg., with or without paper on the pad,

    eg., sitting on the pad, or lying sideways or upside down?

    I would welcome any suggestions and advise on this topic
    regards,

    Dengy

    I simply put it upside down and and have the paper facing up.

    I sit mine with the pad on the bench, paper on.

    As long as it's not resting on the side/edge of the pad it doesn't make a whole lot of difference

    I don't have nearly enough room in my single garage workshop, so mine is currently sitting on top of my belt sander...

    G'day Jill,

    Thought I had already mentioned this one - if I did - sorry to repeat myself.

    Thanks bob, pretty neat! I don't recall seeing them previously. Did you do one for a router too?
