    Thanks
    If I may, FME, when going at one heavily, burrs form at the edge. I strop them a lot along the way on a stiff Illinois fabric to knock it off. Sometimes you must breadboard the thing on something, Begin anew. My favorite is a glass bottle. Some use the side of a hone (guilty).
    Killing it and bringing it back, as Glen refers to, makes you positively aware of where you are.
    JMHO

    Otherwise, the thing rears it's head along the way.
    "Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
    I rest my case.
