LBD - The picture is kind of an optical illusion. It's really glued on the long grain, the angle it was cut makes it look bad on the show side. Should have shown them better. I actually used one before doing all three to test them, I did put a massive amount of force on it and the Ash started to bend and not break so figured it would work pretty well. I have been looking at some of the premade ones if I ever have trouble. Thanks for bringing this up so I could explain to others that may have noticed this and didn't mention it.  Mike
