    Default Bobbin Sander Attachment

    Does anybody know of a bobbin sander attachment for a hand drill? In the Gibson video of an ES-335 being made, there is a scene with a lady sanding the shape with a hand-held bobbin sander. It looked like a rolling pin handle at one end, a spinning bobbin and another handle with a power input on the other....

    Any ideas?

    Ive never seen one commercially available. Basically, it is a rolling pin with a shaft to attach it to a drill/etc. Add a handle on a bearing at the other end.

    You could try this:

    Question: How can you make a "Rolling Pin" sander?
    Answer: Take an old rolling pin and epoxy a steel rod into the existing hole in the center. Cut off one end just long enough to chuck into your electric drill. Take the other end of the rod and connect it to a handle with a bearing in the center. Make sure the handle is smaller than the rolling pin, so you can slide the sleeves on. Alternatively, take a long strip of sandpaper, wind it in a spiral around the rolling pin and tape it down at both ends with fiberglass packing tape. I buy my sleeves from Sand-Rite.


    which is from here:
