Hand sanding or orbital sander for fine finishes? I just learned both ways.

Hand sanding gives more control, but the sander is quicker. Which do you trust for your best work?

Yeah but what kind of project are we talking? I mean, for something with a lot of curves or weird angles, hand sanding is the only way to not mess up the shape. But if it's a big flat table top, starting with the orbital and then just doing a super light pass by hand at the end gets it done. Idk, I guess I don't totally trust either one by itself for my best stuff. Maybe it's just me but I always end up using both.
