After an hour (30 min at 1.75x8 and 30 min at 2x8), need to work on getting it worked in more evenly. Was hitting the top of 8 and decided to order a 2.25x9.
A "just in" and "30 mins in" comparison. Granted the angle is a bit more favourable in the 2nd pic... A shame I lose it all as soon as I release the pressure 😂
