The only time I've seen sandpaper that wide is from surplus sanding belting, but I've never checked out its availability. I did once have a roll, but cut it up to make sanding sheets for a half-sheet power sander. On reflection, rather stupid!
Good luck with the restoration. (I see the radio still at the far end of the bench awaiting completion too!).
Thanks David,
The sticky back sandpaper I use comes in a roll about 2in wide - I just stuck a number of them in parallel on the bench.
Yes the Bajazzo is my shop radio now - gets used just about every day. It's by far the most sensitive of any of the radios I've done so far. I'll be on to making a B+ battery for it one of these days - another first for me.
Cheers, John
