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've done several timber frames and refinished a dovetail log home with an angle grinder. You can achieve a flat finish with care, and the time difference over a belt sander is far from negligible. But it is perhaps a bit tricky for a beginner.
I hear ya. The inferred beginner part was more what I was getting at.
