ABRADING APPARATUS AND PROCESS FOR MAKING THE SAME

摘要

An abrading apparatus formed from sheet stock and processes for making the same are disclosed. The abrading apparatus has a base with a plurality of cantilevered members extending from the periphery of the base with each cantilevered member formed to provide a discontinuous abrading surface along the periphery of the apparatus. A process for making this abrading apparatus includes the steps of forming from a single piece of sheet stock a base having a plurality of cantilevered members, positioning the cantilevered members at an angle relative to the plane of the base, and forming the cantilevered members to provide exterior surfaces upon which an abrasive surface may be provided.
