I may have to make one of the flap sanders but the lathe he uses it both genius and silly.

I made a mop sander. A bunch of scraps of cloth backed sand paper Cut into strips about three inches wide and 8" long. Ripped about 3" on each end to 1/2" strips. Stacked them up about and inch thick, drilled a hole through the center and mounted them on my lathe with them spread into a circle. Used them to roughly sand some pieces into submission and made a mosaic of the for a headboard. Works great.

I had the scraps of sandpaper and was trying to use them up.
