Orbital Sander

An orbital sander is a great power woodworking tool. This power sander is good for a wide range of sanding jobs and is a great addition to any workshop.

This sander is used for preparing new moulding to touching up metal surfaces.

The orbital action spins the pad in an elliptical pattern while sandpaper spins in a circle. This allows the user to move the sander in any direction without scratching or gouging material.
