: Yeah that would be a pain. Mine uses the larger size as I remember.
: I normally only use Norton brand sandpaper, lasts much longer so
: the price difference is worth it.

: Home Depot normally stocks it btw.

I'm amazed Craftsman still makes the sander that I've got, though it's got some new features and the price has gone up considerably since I bought it. I've had mine for something like 25 years, holds up well. It's fairly light, it's really noisy and used to be cheap .
