I know I am doing a "no no" in posting to more than one group, but thought there might be some here who were not on "rec.crafts.woodturning."

Peachtree has a special on bowl sanding kits
If you are needing new, or additional, sanding mandrels, its not a bad deal.

I think most of my projects fall into the category of crafts. I like curv es, more so than straight cuts or edges. I have been using a cylinder type mandrel and it's not too efficient for some curves. Those bowl sanders m ay work better, than my cylinder mandrel.
First 2 pics: Cylinder mandrel; One is a (custom) threaded rod (stem), to reach further, in some cases. And the latest rocker project (It's getting there. One rocker remains to b e made.), where that bowl sander probably would have been better for sandin g some areas.

A man after my own heart! Nothing flimsy there. My wife said that if a tornado struck, the house may be blown away but my projects would still be sitting there.
