All my dishes are made from a 3-piece laminate blank that I make myself (1 1/4" thick). Extremely stable and durable. They also look good!

They are really great for working at your bench or if you want to glue braces with cam-clamps.

Just not so hot for sanding rims to radius.


True, but the work-boards I offer are not meant to replace radius sanding dishes. It can be very handy to have both.
