Etymology

The word 'sander' originates from the Old English word 'sand' which means a granular material used for smoothing, combined with the suffix '-er' indicating a tool or person that performs a specific action. The usage of sand as an abrasive material dates back to ancient times, but the motorized sander as we know it today has evolved over the last century. The proliferation of sanders in modern woodworking reflects advances in technology and an increasing emphasis on efficiency in crafting and construction. Today, sanders are available in various designs, each suited to specific applications, showing the evolution of both the tool and the work practices in industries relying on wood and similar materials.
