New Festool Product

[DiscoStu]

Yes I've posted this in hand tools and no it's not an error.

Today I bought what I think is something new from Festool (happy to be told it's not new) but I found hand held sanding pads.

I was mooching around Axminster having picked up what I needed and saw a stand full of sanding pads from Festool.

I do like to keep a sanding pad or two to hand as often I might have a small amount of breakout or a edge that just needs a quick pass with a sanding pad. I thought they were very good value at £3.60 odd for 6?

I bought some 80 grit and 120 grit.

Sanding pads are 10p each, so 50p for the festool stamp.

Are they re-badged Mirka?

I posted about the Mirka here: building-the-lingerie-chest-t89220-150.html

I can't see that thread from the link on my phone so I don't know if they are or not.

Just looked and Screwfix do Flexovit sanding pads 6 for £6.99 so the Festool ones seem half the price of that.

Not sure where you get sanding pads from for 10p? Any links?
