ABSTRACT:
A hand-held, manually-operated sanding tool for use with a replaceable sheet of abrasive material includes a base member and a clamping mechanism. The base member defines first and second ends, a bottom surface extending between the first and second ends, a contact surface formed opposite the bottom surface and extending from the first end, and at least one tooth extending from the contact surface. The clamping mechanism is pivotally connected to the base member at a pivot point, defines a front section opposite the pivot point, and is movable about the pivot point between an open position, in which the front section is spaced from the contact surface for receiving an end portion of a sheet of abrasive material, and a closed position, in which the clamping mechanism is more proximate the contact surface and the front section is more proximate the at least one tooth.
