An easy method to hold the delicate tail pieces while
sanding the edges is to place the edge of the tail piece
over the end of your building table. Position a second
sanding bar on top of the tail piece, approximately 1"
(25.4mm) back from the edge. The tail piece can now be
held evenly and securely by applying slight pressure on
the sanding bar.
