Fun with sharp implements

For a long time I've put off trying to make my own photo mounts. Today I decided it was time to stop procrastinating and have a go. Fortunately I had some spare mount board to practise on... and there was a lot of practice... some attempts where three of the corners turned out fine, but the last one was a mess... and so on.  This was quite a long way outside my comfort zone.
Anyway: practice does help, even if in this case it didn't quite make perfect. Given that I had the luxury of an uninterrupted day, getting absorbed in these tiny details was quite soothing in the end.
