michael, if it is available , get a magnifier wit a light source and use it .. you will find that you can see the lines better and so you will get tighter fits and also cut in the same direction, either clockwise or as i do counter clockwise. the most important thing is patients. welcome to the group

Hi Michael and welcome to the forum it's great to have you here. I think you will love it here and will soon see a vast improvement in your cutting. Don't be scared to ask questions and post pictures of your work. That way people can put their finger on any problems you may have. They are a great bunch of folks here and very very helpful, with a sense of humour that runs through the entire group. We have a couple of scollers from Ireland on here who are very talented.
