Was watching an old "What is it" segment of "Ask this old house" the
other night.
A viewer had sent in a working prototype of his idea.
A circular piece of wood 1/2"-3/4" thick with a group of 3/8" dowel
pins projecting about 1/2" from a flat face.
The dowels were arranged in a geometric pattern that just happened to
match the dust pick up holes of his ROS.
Application:
Place sandpaper on gadget aligning holes with dowels, then align
dowels with holes on ROS and seat paper.
Neat idea IMHO.

I never found it hard or necessary to align the holes that precicely.

Have had one for years ... got the idea in a magazine at least 15 years
ago, maybe more. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow and post a link.
Mine is a double, with holes in a plywood cover that mirrors the three
dowels that hold the sandpaper/guide the ROS onto same.
A picture oughta be worth at least a couple of hundred words ... :)

"This side toward enemy" is one example of doing it right.
As seen on a Claymore mine.
Claymores are my favorite "BB gun!" <arr, arr, arr>

I thought you were going to tell us how to make a knife.
Don't you mean "clever"?
I thought it was very Cleaver, Wally. (NOW do you get it?)
[OK, so you didn't get it. Wally Cleaver was The Beave's brother in
Leave it to Beaver, a '50s TV program.]

Nah, I wouldn't say it was contributing, just _exposing_ all the
maroons out there. (Bugs Bunny slang for "morons")
