I know that some here use gel-filled gloves during extended sanding sessions. Anyone know a brand or where these can be purchased? Are these merely cycling gloves, or is there a special woodworking variety?

Thanks in advance.

I had to use them before I bought my Festool sanders. (which alleviated the vibration numbness for me) I believe I purchased them at the 'borg. They are finger-less, too.

I've used these from LV. They work fine.
