and detailing workshop so what we are doing is to prepare them to do these cuts from the window so what we have is what resembles and they'll [ __ ] them again that should be a 90-degree angle to keep your Koch straight so what we're going to do point two three an l-shape no reason describe this these are we scrape the tail is when you're cutting the tail there is a danger of coming off the line to take the rest off the tail what we do is we use the tail snappers again to take off that bet so what we have here is an equal amount know what we can do is this is going to be your L [ __ ] what we can practice on one L shape to the L shape DLC so I'm going to demonstrate so again using the tail snappers what we do as we can use both ends of the payoffs muffins what I'm doing as I'm carefully nibbling the tail light but what we have to do if you use the tail snips what we call half the blade more students until they're told make the mistake of using the whole a whole of the blade back and snap the tail so we encourage to use just half the blade that gives you the control so again perfectly what we have is they can eat walk out and eat no gap here so the balance of the tail the points of the tails the two points of the tails in here diagonal in like a 45 degree to tell me get on is if you hold the tile here like this there is a good chance the tile is going to snap so you hold the tile to Archer as a cushioned know what I'm going to do is I'm going to take half of us but if you notice I am taking half the blade very rarely do I use the whole blade unless it's a bigger pile so this has given me control now what this means here is I cannot take this any further a mastery of this comes in so but but but is the only difference so from here I would have the party's this way from here and haptic on the mat way so that is the main difference of these so when we come to the accurate line then again half the blade because the trail has been scraped like so that is enabling me to walk to a straight line so from here again half the plate so here I cannot go any farther so this is when I told them Ryland this can go through here so again holding the tail on the blade still using half the blade then in the corner of the pile using the corner of the snips and slipping out to check for the 90-degree angle I have to put this here so that still needs some work basically in the corner so what we are doing now as we can call fine-tuning so when you look at the tile here we can see the biscuit so the biscuit is rising above the pile so what we have to do is you have to use our pile file up again that's a bit better man okay so what we then half together it's the cleaner work bench you don't you know what bench we can put our hands on your payoffs pails a very sharp and I can be sharpest blast [Music] you
