I still like the sticky back paper disc idea, mainly because I want to see what it would look like. haha. Maybe I will just get a box and go to the local gym and take over a tread mill. That would be a funny sight.

I'm getting it from a lady who bought it 3 years ago and then moved to a home "off grid".
Stay tuned.

Gene, that does sound "interesting." You still taking your meds? Still seeing the doctor regularly?

Seriously, that sounds like a great surfacing tool. I wanna watch.

I did like the velcro idea and the different grits.
