hand sander
Portable abrasive device
A hand sander is a power tool held in the hands and used to smooth surfaces, typically wood, by abrasion.
Various types exist—orbital, belt, palm—distinguished by the motion of the sanding surface.
The term sometimes includes unpowered sanding blocks, though these are usually just called sanding blocks: I need to rent a hand sander for the deck project.
