Thanks for all the suggestions folks, greatly appreciated.
The woods I sand are all hard, hard woods. A lot of it is teak and
it's as rough on the paper as it it on the sawblade and chisels...
Yes, I do use the crepe stick as well but the sanding paper gets
"shiney" after a while. I use the Norton 3X aluminum oxide paper and I
found it really does last a lot longer than the standard paper. The
normal self-adhesive round paper just don't cut it on the woods I use.
They're only small pieces of wood and the final dimensions for them
are quite delicate and important so the coursest I can use safely is
150 grit. In case you're wondering what I'm up to take a peek at this

P.S. Leo - I'll be going to the Hamilton woodshow [most likely] on
Friday, will you be going?
