I don’t worry about part warping because i use the water based method for cleaning so i have less chipping because the supports are taken off while the part is fresh and print is still extremely flexible. Initially, I used an orbital sander but that was way too aggressive for sanding 3D printed parts or Sentra.

The cushioning layer also allows the crystals to cut with a planning motion that leaves an extremely consistent scratch pattern and allows you to achieve extraordinary levels of gloss. Although I have seen these being used for some very fine work, I am skeptical about them as I think the ability to remove too much material is too likely. As you can see from the pictures, this sander is an almost exact copy of the MicroLux however, this one is DC and requires the use of a transformer. Some have snap-in bits and you can only use the supplied bits while others have a Jacobs chuck and you can use a variety of bits that fit the chuck.

Further, from my experience, the sticky back sandpaper remains adhered to the sanding tool better than the Velcro. Sanders have various applications and can be used to give a professional smooth finish on various materials. All of my cordless drills are Dewalt; however, I do own a good number of cheap Harbor Freight Chicago Electric corded tool. The Harbor Freight stuff was when I did not have the money to get higher quality tools and I have slowly replaced many of these cheaper tools with higher quality ones.

We also have a large selection of Tools and Attachments available for use in conjunction with the Micro Mesh Back-up Pad which can be found here. The cheaper stuff, for the most part, works but you lose accuracy and the overall quality with these options. On top of this layer, is a very resilient glue and not a hard resin, but a completely flexible glue that will hold the crystals while allowing it to move and rotate. This sander works well for most stuff that sands well such as ABS and PLA 3D printed parts as well as Sentra; however, once I started my Shoretrooper build, I printed the armor in PETG and PETG does not sand well. This affect the cost of the sandpaper, the availability of the sandpaper and the selection of grits that can be used.Fein’s patent for the oscillating mechanism expired in 2009 and we got hundreds of versions on the market as a result.

The Micro Sander AW+ from 3TECH is designed for use with either alumina sand-blasting powder for surface cleaning and micro roughening or with sodium bicarbonate micro powder for removing staining, plaque and biofilm.
