I have one of these, works great.  Got it years ago at a woodworking shop.  Now I want another one, but it is not sold in USA that I could find.  Did find one sold in Canada, but they don't ship to USA.

 

Anybody have a buddy in Canada?

 

Looks pretty simple to duplicate, uses a bearing to let the sander wind down and not fall out of holder.  But I would need the sanding cleaning pad.

I know a guy there. @HARO50. If you send him enough donuts he might be able to help🤣

I have access to entire Donut shop, part owner.  We can get donuts galore.  

When I was a kid there was a brand of store bought donuts in New England that sold their donuts individually wrapped inside the box.  That's what you need for long distance donut transactions!

 

Of course, we don't know the international exchange rate on donuts, you might find it cost prohibitive :D  In that case, you could try ebay, or as you say, not too hard to make one.  If you have a lathe you could make a beautiful wooden one!  I wonder what the pad material is..... that would be the hard part.

 What if you used a plastic abrasive pad?

I sent a message to @HARO50  

Is this a new currency? Donut heaven exchange!! 

I prefer my donuts FRESH! And btw, there are probably 100 Tim Hortons within a half-hour drive of here.

But back to the original subject.... Check your messages, Gunny.

Don't thank me yet. We still have to figure out my donut commission on this deal! BTW, that's in Canuck bucks, so a bit less in USD.

Don't forget my donut commission as the broker for this impending transaction. 😜

I suspect that once John leaves Kali, they'll be back.

this works for me

Success, because this site has awesome people.  @HARO50 got them from Canada and then on to me here in Georgia.  Royal PIA for all involved and spent some coin but to me that didn't matter.  Have two new units, a lifetime supply.  With this tariff mess who knows how long before we get back to normal.
