: I know this isn't the question you posed, but consider saving
: yourself the workshop space and get one of these, then develop
: the rolling bevel skills. It takes a couple strips using care to
: develop the knack, then you hardly notice then time it takes.
: Way less hastle then B AND C.

I tried that several times and botched several strips. I will continue trying to learn as that technique
seems to be the most popular. I learned stripping using the B&C and struggled to get that right.

I can strip and fabricate as I go now, It's just getting those strips made perfectly,
There is something to be said about
buying ready made strips or kits. That would be too expensive for me as I am obligated to so many builds.
I thought I should do a few more builds with B&C before attempting a new technique.
