A sander is a power tool used to smooth wood and wood finishes. Sanders have a way to attach the sandpaper that does the work. Woodworking sanders are usually operated by electrical power, although some work on compressed air. There are many different types of these machines. Woodworking sanders include belt sanders, disc sanders, and orbital sanders, among others.

Sanders and sanding machines don't have to be used by professionals, contrary to popular woodworking opinion. In this free video series, you'll learn how to improve your home carpentry and wood finishing skills with video instructions on how to use sanders. Our expert will cover belt sanders, orbital sanders, and hand sanding as well. You'll find out how to shape wood, care for your sanders, and how to safely use sanding machines. So, get out your wood furniture and go to town!
