    I'm looking for a new detail hand sander. I don't want a big one (palm sander) I want a small one. I had a Ryobi detail sander for years but it just stopped working. I can't find anything like it anywhere. I make wood crafts and I have to have a small detail sander to get in the small cracks/corners.

    Anyone have any recommendations?

    I do a lot of finishing and those heavy sanders take a toll. I went to Lowes and bought a Black&Decker Mouse. It's light and it gets into corners.

    I have a Porter Cable detail sander and a Ryobi. The Porter Cable is a much better machine and comes with quite a few different profiles that make it nice for different shapes.
