I think most of my projects fall into the category of crafts. I like curves, more so than straight cuts or edges. I have been using a cylinder type mandrel and it's not too efficient for some curves. Those bowl sanders may work better, than my cylinder mandrel.
First 2 pics:
Cylinder mandrel; One is a (custom) threaded rod (stem), to reach further, in some cases.
And the latest rocker project (It's getting there. One rocker remains to be made.), where that bowl sander probably would have been better for sanding some areas.
