Hello. I wanted to make my wife a very unique jewelry box. The design I came up with was a tall, sculpted body with round drawers (see attached frontview.jpg).
I am having a problem sanding the inside curves of the body. The shaping and sculpting process has left a lot of scratches and gouges (see attached curve.jpg). I have smoothed the outside curves with a belt sander and palm sander. ? I tried a "course" sanding sponge and it wasn't flexible enough, or course enough. I have tried simply hand sanding and the sandpaper falls apart very quickly and is going very slowly. Does anyone have any tips on getting those inside curves smooth.
Thanks in advance for the help
