Thanks for the tips, I love learning this stuff. Since you bought it up I have a question on checkering. I have been fooling with it recently and my biggest problem seems to be keeping the lines at the same angle. An example would be if I start with a 3 to 1 diamond pattern and went six or seven inches in one direction, at the bottom I could end up with squares. The angles Change over distance. The only option I have come up with is start a new line with correction every inch or so and that stands out like a sore thumb. If the answer is just keep doing it to gain experience, I'm good with that. Just thought there might be a simple hint or fix to improve this.
As always thanks for your advice, Tom
