Need a small palm sander

I am looking to source a small palm sander with 2 or 3 inch pad to sand small spaces. If anyone knows of a place that I can purchase one please let me know . I have not been able to find one Thanks, David

Or try using the machine?

CNC automated sanding?

I have been wanting to experiment with this for a while, and I could not find anything on the forum. I’m not a big fan of manual sanding, so I figured I would try and use one of those tiny sanding discs that come with Dremels, which conveniently have a 1/8" shaft, and glue a 180 grit sanding disc on that: [image] Here’s my guinea pig for today: a large tray, as it stood after the clearing path + one contour finishing pass on the walls. You can see the circular marks of the clearing toolpaths …

That said, I’ve been eyeing:

Mirka® DEROS 350XCV, 3" 5mm orbit, vacuum-ready finishing sander

would that suit?
