Fillet sanding grips

Post by Dutch1 »

Has anyone ever used these? I'm thinking about ordering some to help in finishing my FS18. I LOVE my Dura Blocks and these appear to be the same material. They would be great in sanding fillets nice and smooth.

All my fillets are 1" or 1.25" od. I think I am going to make sanding fixtures with marine foam. So far been using 1" pipe (1.25" od).

Cool. I made my own but for the money why not?
The real problem is the corners and I tried everything but the best in the end was just using my fingers. They are still sore. 8O
