what is the best sander for rounded obhects

[EducatedMadness]

im sanding a tree stump just wondering is there any specialty sanders i might not know about that would be better than elbo grease cheers,,,,

I find a small angle grinder with one of those rubber backed sanding discs as good as any tool for free hand shaping. Just work through the grades of abrasive, from 40P or 60P to 80 then 120.

Sounds like a project made for flap sanding.
