The first set of cuts.

These sheets were too sticky to just toss after these cuts. I had to pull the bits apart and chop it like crazy. So much for getting "neat" pictures.

Without that last press and roll the first oil-slick chop had we can now see the different colors better.

I think I like these beads better. I can see the colors and designs.

Stacked sheets chopped will give you chevrons, which remind me of African trade beads.
