Ann Wilson of Heart. These are some old live concert videos before the sisters sacked most of the band and went corporate-rock in the '80s. Ironically, sister Nancy sang their only #1 hit. Nancy sings well too, but Ann is in a class by herself. She even does a credible Robert Plant! One of the best female singers of all time, and all but forgotten today. Now we have Taylor Swift. I threw my radio away.


The glue is all dry, time to flatten out the blank. I clamped a piece of scrap wood at the edge of the bench for a stop, and laid the blank up to it on some padding. This will stop it from shooting off when the belt sander hits it. I sorted through all the vacuum cleaner parts I have collected over the years, and finally made an adapter to hook the sander to the little shopvac under the bench. Then I put on a new 80-grit belt, and went at it.
