Cheap Sanding Tricks

In general, a scraper is a much better  tool all around than sandpaper.  For  some tasks however, sand paper is still quite useful.  Here are two tricks to shaping on a budget.

sandpaper rolls are very useful.  By using a length and grabbing each end, applying pressure and pulling the sand paper back and forth like you were polishing a shoe, very quick work can be done.

By applying pressure on a high spot with a finger, and drawing sandpaper underneath that finger by pulling the sandpaper strip with your other hand, you can sand specific spots.
