This is a very interesting read. Thanks for posting it.

Yeah this is nothing new! A couple of guy tryed show this process maybe a year or two ago and where beat down by the pro's!! My grandpa told me About this when I was a kid! About time its shows up to show how it was done back in the day! A lost art to bad only a hand full of people are still doing it!!
