Home Repairs Made Easy with Power Tools The rising costs of labor are turning many home- owners into enthusiastic do- it-yourselfers. Sanding, an essential step in most home repair pro- jects, is an easy task when the right tools are used. Small power tools such as the drill sander (a drill witha sanding attachment) and the finishing sander, are being used by female do-it- yourselfers to fix things around the house. Many find them as easy to operate as an electric mixer, espe- cially when used with "*Press'n Sand" sandpaper sheets. There are no clamps or screws to adjust; the "*sticky-back"' sheets adhere tightly, preventing tearing or ripping while sanding. Here are some easy home-repair and mainte- nance tips: e If a drawer sticks or doesn't slide easily, use a finishing sander to sand wherever the drawer is stick- ing. (Places where a drawer binds often look dark and shiny.) Apply a silicone spray on the tops and bot- toms of drawer runners. e When a door binds, re- move it from the hinges and examine the outer edges. Use. a finishing sander to také off a little wood wher- ever the edge is chafed. DESIGNER ALLEN SCRUGGS' ECLECTIC LIVING ROOM is planned around e Use the finishing sander for light sanding jobs and to give a fine finish to wood and veneers. e Painted Furniture --It'sa good idea to periodically re- new painted furniture. The finishing sander is ideal for preparing the furniture for repainting. e Prepare stair treads for a painting or varnishing. A good workout with a drill sander will clean them and make for better adhesion of the new finish. e Remove peeling paint. Before repainting any sur- face, eliminate bits of flak- ing paint with the drill san- der. You'll get better results! ath Giler dy.
