I can't afford to order a set of these (whatever a set might be) but I'll have to order at least one just to give it a try. The reason I can't buy more is because I spent a bundle a short time back during a previous "sanding email special". Given my age, I might have a life time supply in the shop now.

Hmmm Now I wonder, What grit should I buy? Maybe these belong on the Christmas list. Hmmm

They ARE green!:D

They are also over $20 each!:(

They are not offering them as a 'set'.

A set = at least one each of every grit. (my definition)

Yes, they are not giving you a special price to order a set. BUT if they last five times as long as what you already have and they only cost twice as much ----- this is beginning to sound like one of those story problems that I so hated.....end of story.

If two trains leave their stations at the same time, travel in opposite directions and train 1 is going 60mph while train 2 is going 57mph......

That is called a 'related rates' problem!

Wonder if the 1" strip sander belts are next?

I was thinking christmas tree green. However, I think I like Fiatben's green lady(the one about to 'pounce') better!:D
