Abstract:
Hand held abrading tools are disclosed. The abrading tools include clamping mechanisms to quickly and reliably secure sanding paper, bristled sheets, polishing cloths, and the like, to the tool, while at the same time providing the operator with increased agility and ability to reach relatively hard to reach or oddly shaped surfaces.
