Sheets, hook and loop disks, belts, shop rolls...I use alot (OK, my joinery is not the greatest). I can have a good pile of spent abrasive material at the end of the day, especially if I am doing turning work. I do a shop clean up and think to myself "Well, there went $10+ worth of sandpaper" in one day. It adds up, a decent sander may cost $100, but it will last years...$100 worth of paper can go in 2 weeks.
I would say abrasives are one of my most per/day expenses. I heat with wood, lights/electric are cheap for my small shop. Overhead and insurance are nill.
Cheap is not the best, I have went that route and been frustrated. I am talking quality for a decent price.
Any online resources you guys use?
