Workshop Tip: Reverse your rubber sanding block for curves
The curved back of a regular sanding block makes a great tool for smoothing concave surfaces.
I’ve found that putting a piece of sandpaper across the curved back of a standard rubber sanding block provides the needed support for smoothing concave surfaces. The little brads inside the block hold the paper just as well in this position.
