JW_Halverson:
I wonder what the paleo people did to indicate to the blade where the flute was supposed to stop before they invented black markers? I suppose they could use charcoal from the fire, but it might rub off and then the flute would just keep going? 

I'd take one or two of those failed blades off your hands to put in shadow boxes, if you are tired of them laying around! Heck, your fails prettier than most!

GlisGlis:

--- Quote ---I drew a line and wrote stop so the flute would know where to stop at to match the first side.
It almost worked.
--- End quote ---

Those predictions drive me crazy
when I dont comment your work is because I ended the superlatives in my limited english  :OK

thanks
JW, if you'll send me your address, I'll send you some to make room for more.
Here's one more that just got added to the fluted pile and one for the unfluted pile too.
