How funny, clever and interesting. Add a little more height to the spinning disc so that the sand paper clears the hard drive sides, and then you can use regular size orbital sander paper discs without having to cut your own.
Surely it wouldn’t have enough torque to be useful?
The high rotation speed will compensate for that a bit. It won't probably help you out for some of your pre-weld grinds, but it would certainly work for e. g. model building.
