: drive from my house, and THEY DIDN'T CARRY IT!!!!!

: The result of this was that I was forced to hand sand the interior of my hull
: by hand with 40 grit wrapped around a dowel. Now today, my hands are sore,
: my back hurts....WAAAAA :( :(

: Now I'm thinking that if I screw a handle into that dowel and sprayglue the
: 40grit to it......hmmmm

Ben,

Why don't you go to the local ????? anywhere and pick up an auto/wash sponge, the solid ones, and wrap a sheet of sand paper around that and try it. Much bigger, soft enough to relax your hand and ...........Hell, just go to the hardware store and get the scraper. Sears has them too. :) The few extra pennies you spend will more than be compensated by the soft squishy hands you will get.
