Rocker notching?

(1/1)

D. Tiller:
Well, I just watched the way some people make expanding notches and tried a variation on it. I got a long thin nail and used it like a teeter totter from one side to the other making sure I firmed up the edges before taking the next flake. It works great! Less breakage to boot.

Otoe Bow:
Come on Dave. We're visual people.  Show us what you're talking about.

D. Tiller:
Cant! No camera!!!! Well, I could barrow one but I'm a lazy B@#$@#!  I'll see what I can do. Try to think of a teeter totter. Each movement back and forth takes off a flake,.
