Tips are appreciated and go towards creating new designs

Flapwheels are pretty neat. Depending on the grit they can remove material fast, or finish a surface quickly. They can be used on irregular shapes, curves, holes and other places where conventional powersanding tools have a hard time getting to. They last a fair while, too.
Problem is, those things average at 5-10$ per piece, which is quite expensive even if they last a while.

So I figured, let's make a simple poor man's version which uses regular sandpaper. Sure, the given design doesn't remove as much material as quickly, nor does it last as long as a proper flapwheel, but it's a heck of a lot cheaper. For the price of one real flapwheel you can print one or two of these poor man's flapwheels AND get at least half a dozen sheets of sandpaper which you can use with this contraption. It'll take longer to use, but it's definitely cheaper.

So what I designed here is basically a clamp using two M3 nuts and two M3x10mm countersunk screws to clamp a folded piece of sandpaper and which you can chuck into a drill. Super simple to use and works quite well.

Pros:

  • Super cheap
  • Can be used in forward and reverse, unlike traditional flapwheels which can only go in one direction
  • Because it only has two fans and they're rather flexible, you can spin it up and 'dive' into a hole, not only sanding the inside but automatically chamfering the edge

Cons:

  • Less sandpaper fans, so it's slower than traditional flapwheels
  • Changing the sandpaper takes a minute and needs a screwdriver
  • Need to prepare replacement sandpaper pieces

 

Print Notes:

You shouldn't need any rafts, brims or supports with these files, they're super easy to print. At most the bottom part might use a 3mm brim if youre having some adhesion problems, but other than that there should be no need.

I've chamfered the edges of the design, so you shouldn't need to do any real post-processing either. Just print, assemble and you're ready to go!

The resolution isn't that important, 0.2mm will probably work just fine. Infill isn't critical either. I do recommend using 4-5 shells though, to give it a bit more stability.

PLA ist just fine, you don't need any super strong or resistant materials. The parts aren't under that big of a load during use anyway.
