deep sanding.

(1/4) > >>

crazylegs:
How does everyone sand the inside of a deep vessel. I am doing a vase and am not happy with the inside. I have tried various sticks and rods to get inside but nothing is very satisfactory.

Bryan Milham:
How deep?

I have a couple of methods depending upon depth and whether someone can get there fingers to that area?

bodrighywood:
Like Bryan I have a number of various things I use including stixks with velcro and one made from an old wire coathanger that I can bend around corners. I use a coarse grit e.g. 120 as a rule and if necessary go up to 240. Don't bother beyond that though.

crazylegs:
about 10" deep so fingers only halfway.  I have used coarse grit but am struggling to get rid of these coarse lines. The top is only about 3" or 4 " across so just too small to get my hand in. ( Point to remember here !! ).

Bill21:
Are you sanding with the grain or across with the lathe running?
