I have the Jet 16-32, takes 3" rolls. There is none available locally. As long as I have to order online I may as well find the best deal. I'm interested in 25yd or 50yd rolls. I've found one decent price so far but they don't ship to Alaska!

Anyways, where do you get yours?

Econ abrasives has the best price I've seen, actually Filippo found them & posted here previously.

Sandpaper.ca if you're in Canada. Although I believe they do ship internationally.

I've been using Online Industrial Supply. I haven't checked them against these others for pricing. Product has been good.

I just bought some from SuperGrit. They sell by the foot so it fit my budget but they also have 25 and 50 yard rolls. Highly recommend, fast shipping but I don't know about Alaska.

+1 Too bad you just missed the Dec/Jan $15 off shipping. I just bought some 60 grit for my drum sander and it's good stuff.

I use rolls of Klingspor sandpaper from "The Woodworking Shop" Best stuff I ever used. It may not be the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.

Bingo. Big Jim even did the research for me on where the stuff is made. It's good quality, price rocks and I couldn't be happier.

Filippo

Thanks guys, I just loaded up on 3 rolls of various grits from Econ and I gotta say that I'm really impressed with the quality and quantity I received for under 100 bucks. Jet paper would have cost a whole lot more to get the same quantity and the Jet paper isn't even as nice.

Supergrit is cheaper and you can buy it by the foot if you can't use 25 or 50 yards. Nice to custom fit your drum. Quality is very good and selection is larger as well. Just sayin.'

Both were great, both great deals. ECON was around 34.00 for 25 yards of finer stuff. Supergrit was 60.00 for 50 yds of 60 grit. Either way you can't go wrong.
