Lest anyone think that I'm making this stuff up ;from a more credible source
Dr Gaddy: "It's very difficult to count the layers of metal if you cannot distinguish the welds between the individual ropes and the welds at the edge of the ribband. Each rope (or iron) produces the left side of one whorl (or scroll) and the right side of another. You cannot count the number of ropes in the ribband, if you cannot see and identify with certainty the boundry of the ribband (ribband weld lines), which is by definition the number of irons in the pattern."
