Hi, another tip is to use emery boards they come in all different grades (I tend to use 80/120) and being flexible they’re ideal for following the contour of a hull etc, they can also be easily shaped with a knife for those smaller areas.
Similar to the one above - if the job requires a sturdier sanding block then “good old” lolly-pop sticks work a treat! just stick what every grade of sand-paper you want to use with some double-sided sticky tape, again they’re easy to shape with a knife and for those of you that use lathes to taper yards etc - they come in very handy!!!!!
Phil,
