The right scissors are the key to the job. Without them, all the classes in the world won't help. Jurgen sells some nice ones from Germany. I tried a lot of different scissors that I found here and there, and none worked as well. Now the job is a snap.
(I also picked up a couple pairs at a sidewalk fair in Trossingen, home of the Hohner factory. So I am set <G>. In Germany they are readily available, in the US hard to find.)

Since the class is full, maybe I could be your assistant -- fetch the wastebasket for the trimmings?
I sometimes have rounded the bottom edges of the trichord felts when I thought the sharply cut corners might (or did) hang up. The very sharp barber's scissor were able to trim off the corners leaving nice little roundosities. (Which this stupid spell-check doesn't think is a word. But what could be more plain?)
