|  Gadget 1 G'day all, As regular member would know, my Dad is blind and loves his wood work. I bought him a Random Orbital Sander for Fathers Day (Which I must get in the post ASAP). and to help him align the paper with the plattern I knocked up this little jig to include for him.

| Agree. It's the simple ideas that leave me scratching my head thinking, "Why didn't I think of that"!

| Thanks everyone. I enjoy making jigs and patterns (Not Scrolling ones). I think I like the challenge of trying to make something useful for the shed, and something that makes life just a little bit easier.  If I patent it and sell enough I just may be able to buy one of those magnificent pieces of art that Kevin so kindly showed us LOL

| I always have a ton of trouble lining up my sandpaper disk. What a great idea JohnB! I just might have to build a jig myself. |
