Cheers,
I probly dint make myself clear reagrding 'pillows'. These are
soft but wrapped in one direction so that they are a part-cylinder to
provide accession to the radius but with straight tendencies at 90deg to
same - thus matching varying radii as the sanding progresses. Sorry for the
possible misunderstanding

come

| Kingsley,
| There are probably better suggestions but:
| I made up 'pillows' of cut foam, [garbage bags loosely fitted with small
| blocks of foam bought at local foam shop] , made to size and then casually
| wrapped wityh the applicable grit paper. They appear to accept the size of
| curve withoput being aggressive yet pliable and insistent.
| Hope it helps.

| PS Also used same ploy to make 'pillows' for squirming into tight but
| uncomfortable corners...........
