I should know by now never to assume that just because something goes right one time when playing at the torch - that it will go the same way the following time. Next Session armed with Wilbur, stringer & a positive sense of being I set out to conquer the world of stringer control.
Whilst not perfect (& I have no desire at all for absolute perfection these days) - comparatively, it didn't go too badly. I achieved in part the look I was aiming for - but feel the need for some serious pre-planning with regard to placement.
Whilst doodling one night thinking of the sort of stringer designs I'd like to do 'eventually' - I came up with a couple of basics that I thought would work well together.
I should have quit while I was ahead - but oh no, I just had to go on & keep playing, thereby ending up taking one over ambitious cluttered sketch to the torch with me...... & immediately dismissing it as impossible when I looked at it for idea's.
Lesson Learned .....for this time anyway ;o)
Oh yeah - the 'Quit While Ahead' parts are indicated by the arrows!
