The video was filmed at the Emmanuel College Library in Toronto, Ontario. The pouty librarian is Joan Densmore, a Canadian model, and that seems to be all anyone knows.
More than once I would get back from class to find my metalhead college roommates had taken their Iron Maiden out of the CD player and left this disc in. Tears for Fears - Songs From the Big Chair.
I have several jigs I made to fit my full-sized DeWalt router. That machine is a beast for building furniture and stuff, but it is clumsy overkill for routing neck pockets and truss rods. So I got the idea to make a base plate that will adapt the little router to the jigs I made. Simple - just a 6" square; there it is on the left. The material is a piece of 1/4" phenolic that I had laying around for years. Phenolic resin is a plastic that is so hard and stiff it is more like metal. It is perfect for router bases and other fixtures, but somewhat hard to work. To drill the big hole in the center, I had to shift the drill press to its lowest gear, and cool the bit with water.
