A grinding attachment for use in conjunction with hand-held grinding or drilling power tools such as are commonly found around the house, and method for using this attachment. The purpose of the invention is to allow the homeowner and the like to have greater facility in performing surface sanding, grinding, or finish work on pieces of wood and the like. In particular, the goal is to provide proficiency in working with surfaces that are not planar or otherwise simple. By providing an appropriate compound support against which an abrasive belt or the like is to run as it works the surface, it is possible to have a variety of backing shapes ranging from a strictly planar backing to one that allows the abrasive material to take the shape of whatever piece is being pressed against it. The invention derives its motive power from a coupling to a power tool, typically by the insertion of a drive axle of the attachment into the chuck of a hand drill. The compound support of the attachment includes a means of spring-loading the abrasive belt so as to maintain tension in it. The intended method of use of the attachment will depend on the particular shape of the piece to be worked. The preferred method utilizes an elastic abrasive belt.
