The cutting qualities of the paper should last longer since the load is</div> <div>distributed over a wide area, not a narrow band. Also the staple will score a drum and then cause ridges in the hammer surface where an oscillating sander would distribute it over a distance and would have negligible effect.</div> <div><br></div> <div>Overall, I assume a spindle sander produces a finer finish with greater efficiency or</div> <div>why else would they be marketed.</div> <x-sigsep><pre>-- </pre></x-sigsep> <div><br> Regards,<br> <br> Jon Page</div> </body> </html>
