Elongate sanding block
First Claim
1. A sanding block comprising a handle portion, and an elongate support portion projecting from the handle portion having a plurality of longitudinally extending smooth surfaces adapted to have pressure sensitive adhesive coated finishing material adhered thereto, said surfaces including a first rectangular planar surface, a second planar surface intersecting said first surface at an acute included angle, a third planar surface on the side of said support portion opposite said first planar surface, said first and third planar surfaces converging toward an end of said support portion opposite said handle portion and being so disposed that ordinates of said first and third planar surfaces transverse of said support portion are parallel and that said end has a substantially greater width parallel to said first planar surface than thickness between said first and third planar surfaces;
- and an arcuate surface intersecting the side of said first surface opposite said second surface and smoothly converging with said third planar surface along the edge of said third planar surface opposite said second planar surface, said arcuate surface having a smoothly decreasing radius about an axis extending generally longitudinally of said support portion away from said handle portion.

Abstract
A sanding block having a handle portion from which projects an elongate support portion to which can be adhered a strip of pressure-sensitive adhesive-coated finishing material. The support portion has various shaped surface portions for supporting the finishing material, including a planar surface portion, an arcuate surface portion of decreasing radius extending longitudinally of the support portion away from the handle portion, and an edge surface portion provided by planar surface portions intersecting at an acute included angle so that the finishing material may be supported in a desired shape that affords pressing and rubbing it against a complementary surface on a workpiece by manual manipulation of the sanding block.
