Now the wheels.... oh how plain and boring!
This left my girlfriend glancing over and saying "Oh god, what are you doing now?!?!". Well, if I saw someone sitting under a fluro light, with a 4 inch razor knife in hand, doing what looked like removal of fingerprints from their thumb, I'd say that too.
But all for a reason, and it turned out OK. Again, not as expected, but acceptable. A bit of texture if nothing else!
(And bloody hell, there was enough thumb cramps through the process!!!)
