I needed to have a method of sanding in an awkward narrow square hole. Whilst visiting my local do it yourself store looking for some child safe paint (see my blog about spraying and making a box for my Granddaughter) I spotted the Black and Decker Mouse sander and saw it came with a small nose extension piece that seemed ideal.
Whilst I may well have bought it cheaper elsewhere I picked one up as the need was for a solution now. The sander is a nice fit when working with the main sanding papers but I found it more awkward when using just the nose extension piece, but to be fair that my have just been the position I needed to be in when sanding the square hole.
Its performance however, was excellent and I could not have managed to sand the square without the mouse sander. Also I like the way they have produced the main sanding sheets with two outside tabs. These when removed are used to replace the nose part of the sanding body so extending greatly the durability of sanding time since the nose area can get greater use than the main body at times. So well done for that nice little touch.
Overall for £27.99, the sander is good value for money and a very versatile tool for small scale sanding, exactly what I wanted. I have no doubt it will prove very useful over the coming years.
