Title: Modelcraft MB450 Disc sander accessories.
Post by: Popeye on May 12, 2020, 03:04:42 pm
Does anyone out there in Lockdownland know from where I can order  Modelcraft 80mm dia. sanding discs (course) Item No. MB1797.


I believe Modelcraft has ceased production and my usual suppliers are unable to help. As a last resort I could cut discs from sheet material


though I'd prefer to use the real thing which has always served me well '


Thanks for any positive input.

A search on google reveals there are other makes of 80mm sanding discs available... hope this helps.

Here you go - doesn't give you the diameter though. Maybe you can give them a call?

I've just realized that  I referred to my Sander as 'Modelcraft ...it should of course have been MINICRAFT.

Apologies for the error: put it down to a senior moment,
