Edge Sander Tool Set - 4 sizes - for shaping BALSA LE & TE

These small & handy 3D-printed tools are specifically designed for small models - for preparing your balsa aileron and elevator leading and trailing edges.  Put a perfect 2-sided BEVEL on the hinge edges, or round over leading edges as well.    The sides are flat which can be handy for other small jobs. These tools are meant for smaller-size balsa parts, such as 3/32, 1/8, 3/16 thicknesses. The Edge Sanders can also work on sandable foam!

They fit in your hand like a toothbrush!

Available in 4 different types. ALL FOUR are included in this set!

• The set includes one with a 90-degree opening (for making 45-degree bevels), one with a 60-degree opening (for making 30-degree bevels), a small round sander (1cm-3/8" radius) and a larger round sander (5mm-3/16" radius).All four have flat sides as well.

The tools come with 150-grit sandpaper attached. Note: the color of the paper may vary depending on the stock that's used. You can remove the paper if needed by applying foam-safe CA activator to dissolve the glue. New sandpaper can be attached using a spray contact cement such as 3M brand "77".

This picture shows the 60-degree tool. The length of the paper is about 2 1/3 inches (6cm) - these tools are small (about 4 inches long including the handle) and are purposely intended for small jobs and precision work. The sandpaper wraps around the sides providing additional flat sanding surfaces for other uses.

Here is a 16-minute video which demonstrates how these tools are used in detail!
