HSK 80 x 130 Hand Sanding Block and hoses

Great review Seth. My sanding block & hose just arrived.  ;D

What trick did you use to push the adaptor into the hose? It'll only go in halfway by hand.

No trick. The one I have just pushed in hard.  Maybe warm the hose up a bit?

Got it, a little heat from the blow dryer softened the hose....don't think I'll have to worry about it coming apart.

Thanks.

Hi Seth

Is it possible to use the profile pads for the LS130 with the hand sanding block? Have you tried it? Might be handy for sanding edges.

I'm not Seth but... Those pads for the LS 130 have a special mount. These HSK's have a hook & loop face.

No, but this is an intriguing  idea  [scratch chin]

Just got my hose and sander today. It is awesome. I used it to sand down a little heart my wife and I made.

Ahh, I love dustless sanding!
 
How well do you think these would work for sanding small drywall sections? Do you think the Mirka abranet paper and vacuum would minimize dust and clogging?

I think Granat and Brilliant 2 work well for this application . Abranet may get some clogging, but with the coarse to medium grits, it's not as likely as using their 320 and higher grits.

Interested in this combination, I only deal with plaster when I need to patch a hole from an install or fix a dent but the drywall dust drives my crazy.

It should collect the dust quite well. As far as the abrasives go I have  never used any of them on drywall.

OK, have to ask with THAT reply. Do you get to avoid drywall as a whole, or do something different than sanding? [blink]

Basically no drywall.  The couple of patches I have done for myself were pre- Festool and I just  sponged them smooth. Other than that I did a bunch of drywall in my parents house 25+ years ago.

Ooh!  I can answer this one (albeit a bit late).  It works great!  I used 220 Granat.  Turn the vac down all the way, and open up the air port all way and have at it!
