About this print
A compact sanding block designed for small, detailed work such as leather crafting. It accepts standard sandpaper sheets cut into strips, making it straightforward to keep fresh abrasive to hand without wasting material. The tool-free assembly allows paper to be loaded and replaced quickly. PLA is a practical choice for this part, as it provides sufficient rigidity to back the sandpaper firmly against a workpiece while remaining simple to print.

This is a mini-sanding block I designed to help me with leather projects. I liked the size and versatility of it, so I wanted to share with anyone else who could use this for small, detailed work. It will accommodate most any sandpaper. I used 9-inch sheets and cut them to 1.5-inch strips to fit. The width of this is 1.5 inches, but can be easily modified for larger or smaller strips.
I used an Elegoo Mars to print this, but it should work for FDM printers as well. (Image printed with Siraya Tech Fast, 0.05mm).
Assembly is straightforward, and should not require any hand tools, but holes may shrink a bit depending on your machine..
Hardware Requirements:
- M3 x 20mm Panhead Screw (2X)
- M3 nut (2X)
Formatting may have been simplified. These are the independent maker's instructions and fitment claims; Hark Tech has not independently verified them.
