Tooling Question (feddit.org)

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project which involves the pictured piece of driftwood. So far I have been cleaning the wood manually with sand paper, but this is quite slow and exhausting. What type of (preferably consumer grade) tools can I use to speed up the process?

I use the bristle brushes but in drill bit form. I've also got a bunch of Roloc^TM sanding bits for my m12 polisher. I've mostly used it on cherry and walnut offcuts from the garden. Careful with driftwood as it's often very soft / light weight wood that power tools might rip through.
