i have been using some 4 inch wide rolls that have to be placed in rows that eventually get ugly and peel.

I am looking on his site, I don't see it.....


I am just looking for the sandpaper.
I have and can make my own dishes, but good paper is not so easy to come by.....


If you know where it is on his site, can you post the link?

It's not on his site but he has it, email, PM or call and he will fix you up.  Last time I purchased some from him he had 120 and 80 grit, I bought both and would recommend the 80 grit for dish sanding.

This is kind of a recurring thing that comes up on the OLF.  Many if not most of our sponsors have far more things available then they have the time to place on their web sites.  So call them up and chances are you will have made a new friend too.

I've gotten it from Klingspor as I do most of my sand paper. Im not sure they will supply only 1 sheet, although they are pretty accommodating folks, I think I purchased a 5 pack, pretty much a life time supply for me.

Go HERE.  They are listed before the radius boards themselves.  They are called disks, and he has 3 grits.
