Guest Gabriel1918 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 (edited) Hi guys, I've been searching high and low for a 26" radius sanding beam - preferably the aluminium type. Anyone know where I might find one? Closest I've come is 20" in wood but it's only 200mm long and there's one 20" in aluminium in the US (520mm long), which will cost a fortune to get here and it's not a tool I anticipate using beyond this project (26" radius fretless board). Guitars and Woods in Portugal have up to 16" radius in aluminium. Edited June 14, 2020 by Gabriel1918 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzero Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 This guy made me special ones with a 10 cm width even including one with special radius (39.37 " or 100 cm) for an extra 10 Euros per 210 mm sanding block : http://www.luthimate.fr/fr/recherche?controller=search&orderby=position&orderway=desc&search_query=cale&submit_search= It was in early 2019. I do believe he speaks English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
