Part Numbers for Other Tools or
Accessories You May Require
In our busy workshop we use the Great Planes Easy- Touch
Bar Sanders equipped with Great Planes #80, #150 and
#220-grit Easy-Touch Adhesive-Backed Sandpaper. Great
Planes Easy-Touch Bar Sanders are made from light
weight, rigid, extruded aluminum and can be found at most
hobby shops. They are available in three sizes...5-
1/2"
(GPMR6169) and 11" (GPMR6170) for most general purpose
sanding and 22" (GPMR6172) for long surfaces such as wing
leading edges. The Easy-Touch Adhesive-
Backed Sandpaper
comes in 2" x 12' rolls of 80-grit (GPMR6180), 150-grit
(GPMR6183), and 220-grit
(GPMR6185) and an assortment
pack of 5-1/2" long strips (GPMR6189) for the short Bar
Sander. The adhesive backed sandpaper is easy to apply and
remove from your Easy Touch Bar Sander when it’s time for
replacement.
This setup is all that is required for almost any sanding task.
Custom sanding blocks can be made from balsa or hardwood
blocks and sticks for sanding difficult-to-reach spots. We also
keep some #320-grit wet-or-dry sandpaper for finish sanding
just before covering.
