What is the point of sanding? To smooth out the rough edges or to discard layers? If it's the former, sanding is a piece of cake; if it's the latter, sanding is a tedious repetitive task with no end in sight.
Sandpaper is quite an interesting tool. It's not as rough as you'd expect when you put it against your skin (although I would advise against rubbing), but if you wipe it against wood, you can see minute particles being shaved off before your eyes. If you rub it vigorously, you can reach the inner layers of the wood. It's amazing how one piece of paper can turn the moon into a smooth baby's bottom.
Surely there's a sandpaper equivalent for every problem in life?
