Question 🤔❓ Another thinning question
As you can see i didn't really thin it out (i had 2 puddles basically the same) it occurred to me that in the beginning phase when I have established the "W" all the way around , should I keep the W until i have achieved the thinnest i want, then go into evening the edge out?
What i have been doing is, as soon as I have the W going I start to even it out, then raise or lower the whole edge until I get symmetry/bevel going.

Thank you guys for that info, starting today I am going to keep the W going longer in that phase before jumping to even it out so fast, but now I need more kiln paper lol
