Abstract: Example implementations relate to a sanding tool having an intermediate adapter pad. The sanding tool includes a rigid base plate configured for releasable attachment to a number of sanding handles. The sanding tool also includes an adapter pad that comprises: an upper portion configured to receive the rigid base plate, the upper portion including a perimeter portion that extends above an upper surface of the rigid base plate; and a lower surface configured for releasable attachment to a lower pad, wherein a lower surface of the lower pad is configured for releasable attachment to a working material. The perimeter portion includes a channel configured to receive a bristle ring.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to a hand sander vacuum adapter. The hand sander vacuum adapter can include an adapter base and a vacuum collar. The adapter base can include a base plate configured to releasable engage a number of hand sander bases and a shaft extending from the baseplate. The vacuum collar can be rotatable three hundred and sixty degrees about an axis running through the shaft. The vacuum collar can include a chamber through which the shaft is positioned and a vacuum attachment member extending from the chamber. The vacuum collar can provide vacuum communication between a first end of the vacuum attachment member and a number of channels in the base plate and the base plate can be fixed with respect to the handle during operation.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide working tools that provide suction to a working surface and/or dust removal from a working surface. One embodiment of a tool includes a tool support having an upper surface and a sidewall defining a cavity defined by the sidewall and the upper surface. The tool includes a base attached to the upper surface of the tool support and a vacuum attachment structure attached to the base. The attachment structure includes a connector member having an opening in a first end for releasable attachment to a vacuum source.

Abstract: An embodiment of a tool includes a tool body. A base is coupled to the tool body and a pad is coupled to the base. The tool includes a working material coupled to the pad.
