Even though we don't use full sheets of sandpaper at my shop, this is a great tip. One of my pet peeves is exactly what he describes in this video- dulling your sandpaper by grinding it against itself.
Sounds silly, but it's true - sandpaper gets dull pretty quickly, and if you can make it last longer, why not try this?
i've NEVER liked the folding approach, too much movement between sheets which in some ways = wasted energy.
ReplyDeleteI much prefer cutting, and copied a cutting jig like this one years ago

and then there's always the good old taped sand paper method like you have in the shop!
