    They look perfect Chris. The very reason I never attempt it. Dennis.

    It`s not exactly rocket science, just abit of practice helps..
    I decided I`ve had enough for today so..off to buy some friday beer.
    Here is the batch ready for a trip to the polisher.
    I'll just add, this is low budget work..
    Needs speed to pay unlike a one-off job that Quality time can be spent on (probably unnoticed by the customer)

    I couldn't imagine ever having the patience nor the skill for something like that, budget work or not!

    and yay for friday beer! (though I think I deserve some Apsinthion)

    Like that, Chris. Out of interest, how are you defining budget (other than the obvious one of "charging less")?

    Still finding doing corners with power isn't working for me - I keep picking up a small flat and doing them by hand.
