What is a "sander"?
A sander is a power tool used to smooth or polish surfaces by rubbing them with a rough material. It works by using a rotating or vibrating abrasive pad or belt to remove small amounts of material from a surface. Sanders are commonly used in woodworking, metalworking, and finishing projects to improve the appearance and feel of materials like wood, metal, or plastic. They come in various types, such as orbital, belt, and detail sanders, each suited for different tasks, from smoothing rough surfaces to fine finishing work.
