SANDER
Sander
A sander is a power tool used to smooth surfaces by abrasion with sandpaper. Sanders have a means to attach the sandpaper and a mechanism to move it rapidly contained within a housing with means to hand-hold it or fix it to a workbench. Woodworking sanders are usually powered electrically, and those used in auto-body repair work by compressed air. There are many different types of sanders for different purposes. Multi-purpose power tools and electric drills may have sander attachments. Additionally, surface preparation equipment such as the Easily Manipulated Mechanical Arm feature sanders as an integral component of their system.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Sander
