It can be done, but at your own peril. I like having multiple use tools. Not much you can do on a guitar with an inexpensive belt sander. I use the StewMac nut and saddle vice as a holder. It is 90 degrees on all sides so it sits flat to the table on my inexpensive disk sander. Quick, safe and accurate. Save your fingertips.
