Abstract
A sanding block is disclosed having an elongate shape having a constant cross section along most of its longitudinal axis. The sanding block is formed of a flexible material and has a curved upper surface and a flat lower surface. The curved upper surface has a width less than that of the flat lower surface but has an arc length about equal to the width of the flat lower surface. The sanding block is used by securing strips of sand paper to one or both of the upper and lower surfaces. The width of the lower surface and the arc length of the upper surface are preferably chosen to be about equal to the width of the sandpaper.
