festool sandpaper

[Andy Maldoror]

i've got to do a complete resupply of all grits of sandpaper for the 5" festool sander. where do you buy yours?
do you anticipate any black friday coupons or anything that would save me some? isn't there some $10 off free shipping that woodcraft does? is festool sandpaper exempt from such sales like the tools are?

Here is my source for Festool supplies https://www.bobmarinosbesttools.com/

Of course there are other Festool dealers including McFeelys that will treat you right http://www.mcfeelys.com/festool-abrasives

BUT here is my source for sanding discs. I especially like the Abranet Mesh. I have found NOTHING BETTER or more long lasting (at the least 5 X s longer than Festool Brilliant for sanding finishes or Rubin for sanding raw wood). http://www.2sand.com/Abranet+Discs/

Andy, I buy my Festool sandpaper from whoever has it. Sometimes that means Amazon for me (fast shipping). You won't pay any less (and probably not on Black Friday either) because Festool everything tends to be excluded from sales and promos. There was a Festool 10% off sanders and sandpapers promo that was about a year ago, and that's the only time the stuff has been priced any less (that I've seen).

Sam, is there some extra adapter pad that's needed with the Abranet?

Yes, but I've only had to buy the first one when I tried a disc sampler . I've gotten 2 or 3 more no charge when I ordered boxes of discs.

From the web site showing price and reason for the extra pad.
