    OUCH....

    I'll post here...

    I've got a DA that I got from stamps222. Touched it up on the 12k, some passes on the Cr, and leather.

    Guess I did fairly well on the 12k, and I didn't pull the skin like I should have. I've got two pretty good chunks removed from my face, one on either side of my jaw.

    Lesson learned...Pull that skin more taught.

    Oh, and FWIW, I've been playing with using home made lotion rather than lather.
