    I was so desperate yesterday, felt so bad and thought that now might be better to take a few days break or something.
    But then mind did not give a peace...
    I read more other threads with thinking about how to connect torque and other advices. Then decided to change razor, I have one Helje #23 which was two nicks in front of blade, not bad but anyway needed a little more action.
    I also decide to change stones. Chose Nani SS 2k and coticule. Started to first focus on stability and how my hands feels torque and pressure. I was pretty sure that weekend mistakes was a little too hard steelfi that TI + after several tried absolutely too much pressure.
    Also one change what I did was no tape. So, it was clear decision to get a better feeling and trusting that, not trusting tape "saviour"
    Only stropping with horsehide which might be too little but that's another practise. Have to go to sleep
    Here are results, still mistakes but overall gave a hope and was happy that I got nicks removed without creating other mistakes
    Somehow microscope photos was really difficult to focus properly today, don't know why
    Razor and stone change was really good move, much better combination to practise
