you probably want a belt sander as the most useful tool. best to work out of way of mounting it upside down on a workbench.
Best solution I've seen - buy a Jenga set from the car boot sale, for £3. That's 50 holds right there.

Thanks for the suggestions! any ideas for cheap dowling acquiry... nipped out in work lunch to a big BandQ got a 1/3 sheet sander for less than a tenner. had a look for some downling but it was about £10 for a length (1 Metre i guess), is this the price to expect or can it be sourced cheaper?CheersTim
