Brilliant post Thank you.

C'est tres magnifique! 8) 8)

I would love to have a go but whether I have the patience is a different matter.  I have a bedan tool and it is very versatile - it tales a little getting used to but gives a great finish.

I guess this is another one for my long list of things to do.... 

Cheers Atco

George, if you don't try, you'll never know!

You should always try everything at least twice, the first time to try it and the second time to see if your first impression was right!
