gross lab senior = obese elderly technician? i don't think s/he would appreciate you installing a keyboard on said person. emily A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted. You should live several lives while reading it. -William Styron On Tue, Aug 9, 2011 at

I currently use a paratrimmer. However, in the past I used an extremely dulled metal scalpel with a non-disposable scalpel. I dulled it by scraping it on concrete then on cardboard boxes. It is perfect for popping blocks out of the molds and also the perfect size for quickly scraping the sides
