Make a Sandpaper Book
Sep 30, 2015
Here’s a quick solution for keeping sandpaper flat, organized, and easily accessible. I start with two scraps of high-density fiberboard, 1 in. larger than a whole sheet of sandpaper (or whatever size you cut your sandpaper to). Join the two pieces with a duct-tape hinge, leaving a gap of about 1 in. between them. I use a paint pen to write the grit number on the spine and the cover. The folders stack easily and the weight of the fiberboard keeps the sheets flat.

It’s been 3 years, how is the glue holding up on the duct tape hinges? I like the idea but don’t have a lot of faith in the tape hinge.
