Random orbital sander works great in small places. Works at getting into those tight spaces that bigger random orbits cannot handle.
Purchased to refinish an acoustic guitar. I use it for polishing my vehicles in smaller areas. Discs from 40 grit to 240 grit is available for this tool.

Dust port not a standard size

And using my normal 2 handed grip the taper of the head of the sander right over the disc makes it a little hard to hold it can actually slip out of your hand if youre not paying attention
