Update 12/24 2:30 pm:
Spend over an hour at the post office to ship all the sheets out that were paid by last night. Waited in line for 5 minutes, then the very unfriendly postal person took about 15 min to get every envelope and box properly postage and when I gave my debit card for payment, her computer system went down. Took about a good half hour to get it up again, but she couldn't process any cards. Had thanks God enough cash on me to cover. Three packages will be shipped after the holiday, I still wait for some 240 grit sheets to come....
Have a great Christmas!!
UPDATE 12/24 at 5:30 am:
I close this for now, pretty much all of the fine grits from 240 to 400 are sold out. If someone is interested in the 120 and 180, please let me know - I like to get rid of these as well, the following is left:
120 grit: 37 sheets
180 grit: 49 sheets
240 grit: 0 sheets
320 grit: 6 sheets
400 grit: 0 sheets
For those who have ordered, but not paid yet, please do so, and I will ship yours after the holiday.
12/23, 9:30pm:
I try to ship all out that have paid by today at 8 pm - if you have not paid yet, please do so. All orders until 7:30 pm today are packed.
Tell you, much more work than I thought - my hands are all rough from handling the sanding mesh.
UPDATE 12/23 at 6:50 am: I plan on sending out tomorrow to all that have paid by tonight 6 pm or so. Got to buy envelopes today for shipping.
Here is the actual number of available sheets as of 6:50 am today:
120 grit: 105
180 grit: 88
240 grit: 57
320 grit: 56
400 grit: 56
BTW, the coarser grits are great for flat work and sanding out tool marks in bowl turning.

I had some time ago indicated an Abranet sanding mesh group buy. I got into contact with a supplier and they had a special running - limited to until Christmas. So I had not enough time to post it here, wait for pre-orders and then order the Abranet. I just went out on my own and bought 15 boxes (three each in 120, 180, 240, 320 and 400 grit). These are the large sheets, 2 3/4" by 16 1/2" .
I will keep some for myself, but the rest will be sold to IAP members.
The cost is only $1 each sheet (and this already includes shipping to me and the paypal fee) - the last group buy, I believe, the price was about $1.20
Shipping to you is additionally: up to 20 sheets it is $3.50, over 20 sheets it is $5. The sheets will be cut in halves for easier shipping.
Here is what is to be had:
120 Grit: 145 sheets
180 Grit: 130 sheets
240 grit: 130 sheets
320 grit: 130 sheets
400 grit: 130 sheets
Please, send me an e-mail with your order, please specify amount of sheets in each grit. I keep this up as long as I have sheets: first come - first serve - until they're gone!!
Minimum order is 5 sheets!!
Have a great Holiday Season!!
