Our roof has these wooden support beams which are a pretty rough cut wood, I was wondering which electrical sanding tool would be the best for something like this, an orbital sander, belt sander…? Thanks!

    I second this. Doesn’t look like there is much to remove to get it smooth. I’d be starting with a belt sander and you might get away with a single pass with a medium grit. But if taking too long, use a coarse grit with belt sander and switch to orbital for final finish. Depending on what finish is going to be applied (if finishing is the intent), finish sand with #180 for oil based or #220 for water based.
