Thanks, Robert! I just realized yesterday that I should've mentioned a big reason people tip the sander, lay on it, or act like they're hand sanding is 'cause they don't realize the paper is just toasted

@brentfowler2317 Год назад

Man, Caleb I wish you could, come talk to the people I work for!! Lol. I work in a cabinet shop, 85 - 90% of everything we do, is by hand! So they use pneumatic sanders without dust collection, which is crazy. I mean since we just set up a Gorilla Pro dust extractor.. Anyhow, they just want me to stand super fast. And only use 120 if the face frames are getting stained, and 150 if they are getting painted! Sanding is something I have liked somewhat, almost enjoyed. But now has become so stressful! Just from being rushed all the time! So I've got to forget everything I've learned over the past 6+ years. Also I understand that It's all fairly new to me. Working in a production woodshop environment, that is. It's just hard, because I'm a perfectionist. For me, everything has to be perfect! And I think that someone that way can pick up speed as they learn and all that. But someone who, half-ashs everything is harder to fix! But anyhow I digress! Great video. Take care man.

Very informative indeed. I was a bit late in checking your video. I made a mistake and started sanding raw wood (book shelf) with a higher grit (240) :( It came with the sander I bought and I did not check the grit sheet first. I think you covered this that once a higher grit sheet (240) is used one should not use a lower grit sheet (180). Lesson learnt for the next project.

@BrettsWoodshop Год назад

Maybe you could cover how to avoid curving the corners or edges of a workpiece with an orbital sander.

@YouCanMakeThisToo Год назад

Keep it flat and keep the bulk of the sand on the surface and not off the edge.. and also ignore my bit about overlapping the edge by 1/2 and only do about 1/4” off the edge. Slightly more pressure on the back of the sander to make sure you’re not pushing on the edge. Hope that helps

I’m preparing a solid oak bed frame that has a honey looking finish. I’m hoping to get a high gloss finish from applying a walnut dye. I don’t know how to continue once I feel like the wood is ready for the first application of dye. I intend to put a final coat of polyurethane, or lacquer, but I’m confused about applying a sealer to the wood. What, why, and when do I need to do this. I would greatly appreciate any advice on the subject. Great channel and content. New viewer from the UK.

@juandominguez7021 Год назад

Hello ! I saw you using surf prep , haven’t not seen no video out there explaining when or why to use yellow vs blue/green surf prep sand paper

@Adam-cb2pv 10 месяцев назад

Hey! Love this video and thanks, learned so much as a complete beginner. We just got an oak dining room table, extendable and the middle extension piece hasn’t been used. I’ve done 1 sand coat on it. Would the aim be, keep sanding it all down so it looks the same, then go up a grit? When you’ve finished on say 220 grit, do you then apply a finish? I saw a danish oil and beeswax. Any tips if that’s the correct route for this first project would be super! :)

@YouCanMakeThisToo 6 месяцев назад

I'm not sure what you mean be looks the same... a good technique to make sure you've sanded even is to make light pencil marks across the whole surface. When they're gone, move to the next grit

@DerCribben 2 месяца назад

Would you see any benefit from hand sanding with the grain a bit after sanding with the random orbital sander?

@ungarlinski7965 3 месяца назад

My cutting board wobbles a little. Can an orbital sander like you're using make it flat again? I don't have a planar.

@YouCanMakeThisToo 3 месяца назад

If you only use one side the easier answer is little rubber feet. You can definitely try to just sand down the high spot though.

@glennspurrell5432 Год назад

Great video. As a new person to the sanding world how about preparing veneers? Should I start with a 150?180?220?

@YouCanMakeThisToo Год назад

If its a quality veneer you can probably get away with just raising the grain and then sanding with 220

@elettramia6380 2 месяца назад

The pencil tip is so simple and just an amazing piece of advice 💗 also when you pop the grain with the spray solution do you sand the entire piece? Or just where it feels fuzzy? Thank you.

@YouCanMakeThisToo 3 месяца назад

It can be tough to tell. When you notice it isn’t cutting as well, if it tears, if it’s getting gummed up. A good rule is good paper lasts for about 20 minutes tops. You can also just feel it, and feel a new sheet. You can tell the difference.

@Eveningkiss Год назад

Hi new to the channel question how do you sand a rounded area like from a lathe or router if your refinishing a table or dresser

@YouCanMakeThisToo Год назад

You can use a disc, but I prefer to find sanding belts or strips and wrap around them and sand them across the grain.. kind of like a cartoon drying their back. Once you’ve got everything removed, switch and sand by hand up and down the part, with the grain, to hide the scratches. If you’re removing finish starting with a chemical stripper can save a ton of time. And there are fairly “green” strippers based on Citric and stuff now too

@tsl9150 5 месяцев назад

I bought some nice acacia wood shelf but unfortunately they had loads of swirl marks in them. I really like acacia wood and would like it to pop. What grit should I go up to? Kinda thinking about not using any finish, just have in natural. Or is there a nice light oil I could use?

@YouCanMakeThisToo 5 месяцев назад

If you really want the grain irregularities to shine, you're looking at going up to 400 grit or so. If you leave wood raw, it's susceptible to staining from spills. At least put a clear finish on it.

@cavalli821 2 месяца назад

Thank you for this video! I used stripper on all my kitchen cabinet doors (4 sides of maple wood with a plywood central panel with veneer) and sanding is my next step. (They were never painted but 20 years old and the old finish was chipping away) I will then apply the General Finishes Arm r Seal. Based on my understanding per your video, I should use 180 grit sand paper and then a 220 grit sand paper but no more than that.. Then I should use a damp cloth to wipe away all the sanding dust. And then finally apply the Arm R Seal. And after 1st coat use a 350 ish sand paper and a 500ish one after the 2nd coat. Does all this sound right? I am also thinking of hand sanding and not using any power tool - I have no experience with power tools so hand sanding might be less risky and easier. What do you think?

@BarbaraGeorgeSchwab 3 месяца назад

What about starting and stopping the orbital sander. Do you leave your sander flat and sitting on the surface when turning off and on?

@Ricky-hs3nb 7 месяцев назад

What sander gives the best result, random orbital sander or orbital sander. I have a surfprep orbital sander? Willing to invest on random orbital sander if it gives the best results

@YouCanMakeThisToo 7 месяцев назад

Random is more likely to give you J hooks if you don’t use good technique. That said I’m not sure anyone makes a true orbital anymore, they’re almost all random.

@dianemarie8275 7 месяцев назад

Can you recommend a moderately priced LOW VIBRATION sander? I’m a hobbyist, I enjoy refinishing old furniture, but my hands are really hurting me. I currently use a Black and Decker. I bought cheap because I didn’t know if I’d enjoy the hobby, but I very much do enjoy working with wood. Thanks!

@YouCanMakeThisToo 7 месяцев назад

@rexroganblat2690 Год назад

Unfortunately you didn't talk about sanding the edges of the dimension lumber you were working with. That's where I usually make mistakes. I find it difficult to keep the edge flat as I'm sanding with a random orbital sander.

@YouCanMakeThisToo 6 месяцев назад

Just keep it as flat as possible and move down the length. It's going to round at the edges.. hopefully your edge treatment covers that. If you want it to stay dead flat then you've gotta make a sanding block and sand by hand, or use a plane, or card scraper.

Just got my hands on my first orbital sander so found your video just at the right time! My summer project is to refinish our redwood deck using penetrating type of wood finish. Planning to smooth out the weathered top railings with the sander (will use 80, 120, 180), as part of prep I was planning to power wash the entire deck floor and spindles - what is the right sequence? sand then powerwash or vice versa? (I dont intend to direclty power wash the top railings after I've sanded but the "check me out, I'm erect" part of your video got me concerned)

@YouCanMakeThisToo 11 месяцев назад

Pressure wash first. Wanna get all that dirt and junk off before it clogs your paper fast. For a deck rail I wouldn’t sweat popping the grain.

Depending on how well your machines are dialed in, scraping can be a substitute for sanding. If you scrape well, you actually sand after not to smooth the wood, but rough it up so it takes finish

I don't understand how to tell if the 80 grit scratches are all gone before moving on to 120 and seeing if they are all gone before moving up. I mean if all the scratches are gone we're done. Or if the 80 grit scratches are sanded enough then they become 120 grit scratches so why sand them with 120 when the new 120 scratches are going to go away with 180? Huh?

@TomLichti Год назад

@Toyotajunkie Год назад

When sanding properly, each grit removes the previous grit's "roughness." Your example was 80 and up. You start with 80. Then move to 100 or 120, sand properly and the rough surface has become smoother. Then move to your next grit. Then the surface becomes even smoother. Etc etc etc. I am curious if your true question is "why do we need the extra steps of 80 and 120 if we stop at 150 and the surface is a 150?" If that is your mental hurdle, I believe the answer would be: the grain isn't actually surfaced. You might get the outer most elevation of grain, but there is a minute amount that the 150 would not reach that would remain "untouched." Using the proper grit steps ensures a uniform surface and uniform shaping of the fibers. "Popping" the grain before the last grit or repeating the last grit after popping builds on this. Maybe try to think of it as hills and valleys... the 150 can't cut through more than just a bit of the top of a hill and leaves the valley untouched. That "gap" will probably make your stain/finish look blotchy or spotted. I really hope this helps, as I am by no means a "teacher" no matter how much I understand the situation. 😁

Too build on this... maybe it will add to the overall understanding. Low grit (60, 80, etc) will cut those hills off quickly and make a new surface. A plateau if that helps. But that plateau will be "rocky" still, so then the higher grit will smooth it more. Then it will be "sandy" and the next grit will smooth it even more. Hope that helps!

I guess I'm asking how to tell if a scratch is going to come out with a, say, 150 grit or if I need to keep going with 80 grit. Kaleb said "until all the scratches are gone". But in reality there are smaller and smaller scratches. How do I tell the difference?

@YouCanMakeThisToo Год назад

So I’ll look at an area and pick a few big scratches and sand over it. If they’re still there.. then they’re lower grit and need more love. If as you pass over an area all the scratches change, then you’ve sanded through the old ones. When I do that check it’s normally not at the 1”/sec.. I’ll get close and pick a few scratches in a spot, cover it for a few seconds and see what happened. Hope that helps/makes sense.

I have never used a power sander before and the first "do not" at 1:38 sent me, because, do people actually do that????? like how would anyone think thats ok??? ???????? the whole point of having a nice big sanding surface on it is to sand a bigge area at once. I have watched a lot of woodworking and done some hand sanding, so I might have a leg up on ppl with less knowledge

@YouCanMakeThisToo 7 месяцев назад

The fact you’ve never used one is why. When you’ve got one tiny stubborn spot and it’s going really slow because you’re sanding a 6” radius instead of a penny.. it feels right to tip it up and just got that trouble spot.

Bravo!!! Looking into the camera when switching views!! Can't stand it when people change camera positions and don't face the camera!!! Oh, byw, thank you for the information on proper sanding.

That's a symptom of using multiple cameras and using the changes to cover stuff you have to cut. Whereas I did it just to be extra and funny
