Don’t use an orbital sander without watching this. 

[@louislandi938]

You just solved my biggest problem with this sander!
No one else has addressed it. ‘Problems created when pressure is applied’.
Thank you.

[@Anikasdiylife]

So happy to hear that. It is a very common issue

[@Marlin291]

She just mentioned everything I did wrong.😂 Thank god I saw this video before actually staining my cabinets lol

[@Anikasdiylife]

yay! Another project saved!

[@marniepeters5142]

Me too! lol! Explains the swirl marks I always have on my wood! 😂

[@gloria_loves_bats]

yeah, I'm glad my backer pad broke, otherwise I wouldn't have seen this video

[@kevindumas1743]

Great advice once again…one of my fav tools..😀

[@Anikasdiylife]

Great to hear!

[@lauriemacquanan2141]

Thank you for teaching me about the sander.

[@1Techdrawer]

I like the video. Appreciate the instructions but I wish I saw her operating it. Im researching sanding tools to buy. Thanks.

[@shadrackwahonya3445]

First timer looking forward to more from you.

[@Anikasdiylife]

Welcome aboard!

[@constitutionalcarpenter541]

Excellent advice. I have worked with a lot of "professionals" who werent aware of these things.

[@SarahW-xx3rl]

Now I know why I got all those annoying swirl marks. 😢 Thanks for the tips!

[@Anikasdiylife]

Happy to help!

[@norm5785]

Absolutely correct

[@isaiahsexton1423]

not meantioned the fact that it wears out the pad faster, causes more vibration, and also puts unnecessary load on the motor wearing it out the contacts faster and burning through brushes

[@annegarcia8668]

Maam can i use that to sand a mirror edges? And put a little water for clear smooth edges? Hope u answer my question 😊🙏

[@Gurujiblessin]

Thanks for your advice 🙂

[@johnkordish3546]

This woman is actually right just let the tool do its job electric sanders are made to use with one hand I know this stuff because I own my dad’s father’s craftsman 3D sander it’s a contour sander the one she is using is a orbital sander

[@Anikasdiylife]

thanks for confirming your understanding!

[@jerrychetty2524]

Well, you’re using non-perforated disks, so have fun eating sawdust

[@jujoo_bee]

She said that it’s a mesh disk

[@daileighnovember]

My sandwr is obviously an older version than every one ive seen in videos thus far it has its own built in? Pad thpe thing w holes in it thats like velvro- i have no clue how to get my paper on it!

[@DJ-Art-Morris]

[@MrKYT-gb8gs]

There are Jo holes in ur sanding disc? Dust collection may not work.

[@Anikasdiylife]

Its a sanding net. Lots of holes 😀

[@vishanthgp]

The best advice I heard ever. Thank you so much for this content. You saved me a lot of time and energy and effort.
Now I know what I been doing wrong all this while.
Say, what kind of vaccum cleaner do you attached to the sander? I wanna get one. I bout a karcher, but the exhaust Nozzle of the bosch random orbital sander is way smaller than that of karcher. So was really curious as to how to go about it.

[@Anikasdiylife]

I am glad it was helpful. For the vacuum - any shop vac will work. You will need to get an adapter for the nozzle.

[@vishanthgp]

@@Anikasdiylife Thank you fornthe Intel. Post more. Awaiting more from you.

[@arunprasadjayakumar5708]

Superb explanation

[@Anikasdiylife]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@d1r3c2r5]

I wonder how heavy the sander is. I plan to buy one.

[@Anikasdiylife]

it's about 3.5 lbs

Good tips and nice to see women in DIY. But if you want to be a role model and do DIY videos, the FIRST thing you have to do is remove ALL jewelry like watch, earrings, and tie your hair back and up so it does not fall into your work using power tools. Don't try to look pretty in the workshop. In a kitchen, hair is unhygienic. In a workshop, hair is a dangerous liability. I lose respect for women with long hair waving in the wind, hovering over power tools. That is as bad as loose clothing. ONE mistake and your head is in the grinder. Ditto for any jewelry - wear no jewelry of any kind esp on your hand and wrists. Please adhere to basic safety.
