So what tools are effective for sanding bowls, especially the inside? The Random Orbit sander works well on the outside to maintain a consistent profile. Most of the spindle sanders are too short to work on the inside, unless you look at the Jet or Grizzly 9" spindles. They are over 300lbs and $750. Is there a 9" or so drum for a drill press? Any ideas? Seyco has foam backed drums which work well for a lot of things but not for a consistent internal profile. King Aurthur has pneumatic drums in long and short but leave you guessing as to what that means. On smaller bowls a 3" drum is to big for the bottom opening, so a smaller drum would be needed, and also for the oval and scalloped bowls.
