Default Homemade Spindle Sander

The F-760 Flap Actuator Cover has to have a notch cut out to allow for the bolt that holds the flap motor in place. I decided to wrap some old sandpaper around a drill bit, taping it in place using scotch tape on top and bottom. Then I just moved the cover up and down on the drill bit until I got the depth of the cutout just right. It made a nice round cutout.

Bob Kuykendall (sorry if the spelling is off) also uses an overhead radial saw for spindle sanding:
