That looks like sheetrock sanding screen. So how do you get the SS up to the wall? :D

I'm having trouble remembering back that far, I think you just pulled the head stock off the tubes and got up on a step ladder, making sure you were set no higher then D then got to work, you were to the 2 x4's in seconds as I recall not that you could see them for the dust. The real test was working on the ceiling....

Sanding the ceiling is easy. Just use the set-up in this picture and exchange the drill chuck for the sanding disk with the sanding screens.
