Sometimes the best ideas happen by accident, or neccesity

That is outstanding! I will definately try this! Now, do you have a technique that steadies your fingers to make such a perfect cut, cause I suck at trimming. lol Maybe a few swigs of Crown to calm the nerves? If not I guess a few more shots and I wont care that it looks like crap. Seriously though, thats a great tip. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the great artwork. You have talent.
