Abstract
A sander device is provided for sanding an outside corner of a structure, such as a building wall or a furniture item or the like, defined by a pair of angularly oriented surfaces. The sander device comprises a mounting bracket defining a pair of support plates oriented at a selected angle, e.g., a right angle, relative to each other, and wherein the support plates are adapted to receive and support sandpaper sheets at the selected angle. The mounting bracket with sandpaper sheets mounted thereon is removably mounted onto a base which includes a handgrip to facilitate manipulation of the sander device relative to a corner structure to be sanded.

A non-mechanized corner sander for manually sanding an outside corner of a wall structure, comprising:
- a pair of support plates for receiving and supporting a pair of sandpaper sheets;
- a base formed of a rigid plate bent to define a handgrip and a pair of backstop plates extending outwardly from said handgrip at a selected angle relative to each other so as to receive the outside corner of the wall structure therebetween;
- and
- means for removably connecting said pair of support plates respectively to said backstop plates.
A corner sander for manually sanding an outside corner of a wall structure, comprising:
- a mounting bracket formed of a first rigid plate bent to define a pair of support plates oriented at a selected angle relative to each other so as to receive the outside corner of the wall structure therebetween, said support plates each defining a front face for receiving and supporting a respective sheet of sandpaper;
- a base defining a pair of backstop plates oriented generally at an angle conforming to said support plates, said backstop plates being joined together by a handgrip;
- and
- means for connecting said mounting bracket to said base in nested and clamped relation, whereby edges of the sandpaper sheet folded over said support plates are pinched and retained between said support plates and said backstop plates.
A non-mechanized corner sander for manually sanding an outside corner of a wall structure, comprising:
- a mounting bracket formed of a first rigid plate bent to define a pair of support plates oriented at a selected angle relative to each other so as to receive the outside corner of the wall structure, said support plates each defining a front face for receiving and supporting a respective sheet of sandpaper;
- a base formed of a second rigid plate bent to define a handgrip and a pair of backstop plates oriented generally at an angle conforming to said support plates;
- and
- means for connecting said mounting bracket to said base in nested and clamped relation, whereby edges of the sandpaper sheet folded over said support plates are pinched and retained between said support plates and said backstop plates, wherein said connecting means comprises a pair of screws respectively on said support plates for reception through elongated slots formed respectively in said backstop plates, and a pair of nuts for threaded mounting onto said screws to retain said support and backstop plates in clamped together relation.
