Ok so last night i stayed home and did some sanding. We are finishing our floors thruout the house. But as we do not have the funds are using hand sanders. Now I know that it would be way easier to use a big machine, but we neither know how to use them or have the money. ANd our floors for the most part are not that bad off. Anyway my wife spent 4 hours sanding yesterday with her brother, I came home from work and did the actually stairs. Let me just say anyone wants a great lower back/hamstring/forearm work out let me know!!!!!

  Sanding machines make it a lot easier, but you have to have that carpenters touch. I don't envy you on that job at all. My wife likes to refinish furniture, and our last project was an old upright piano that had 4 different colors on it. Strip, peel, scrap, sand, burn;strip, peel, scrap, sand, burn...Good luck on the floor; it will be beautiful when your done...

  Mutt, I own a cabinet shop and sanding is a thing I know well. Wise choice bro not to rent the big machine. I have seen serious major damage done with those in the wrong hands.
