EASY-TOUCH

BAR SANDER

A flat, durable, easy to handle sanding tool is a
necessity for building a well finished model. Great
Planes makes a complete range of patented Easy-
Touch Bar Sanders and replaceable Easy-Touch
adhesive-backed sandpaper. While building the
T-34B Mentor we used two 5-1/2” Bar Sanders and
two 11” Bar Sanders equipped with 80-grit and 150-
grit adhesive-backed sandpaper.

Here’s the complete list of Easy-Touch Bar Sanders
and adhesive backed sandpaper:

5-1/2” Bar Sander (GPMR6169)
11” Bar Sander

(GPMR6170)

22” Bar Sander

(GPMR6172)

12’ roll of Adhesive-backed sandpaper

80-grit

(GPMR6180)

150-grit (GPMR6183)
220-grit

(GPMR6185)

Assortment pack of 5-1/2” strips (GPMR6189)

We also use 3M 320-grit or 400-grit wet-or-dry
sandpaper for finish sanding.
