Sanding Blocks

Such a simple idea, yet it makes a world of difference in finishing. StewMac - feel free to copy this design, I've copied enough of yours!​

Sanding blocks are 1/8" neoprene foam (mousepad) glued over 1x2 & 1x3 scrap pine, with 1/4" roundovers ( makes 3/8" roundover with padding. ) Use waterproof contact cement. The large block is sized for 1/4 of a standard sheet of sandpaper, and will also take half of a 1/3 sheet piece. Small block works well for details, inside horns, etc. The neoprene grips the sandpaper exceedingly well, wet or dry, and has just the right amount of 'give' for very fine sanding.

I never knew the lyrics to this song. Who can understand Australians anyway? They barely speak English. Just watch Braveheart and try to figure out what the hell is going on. To me, this song was always "Back in Black ... random hollering ... Back in Black ... etc." Which is fine, it's a great song. But she's actually pronouncing words. I'm not even sure she speaks English, she's probably doing it all phonetically with cue cards. But she sure has great enunciation.
