On the back, logo on the outer shell, on the insert, or full width hologram?
Roger's books are also filled with lots of footnotes, for which I am thankful, they contain a ton of extra information. And I'm glad he uses...

On this 100% question, acetone will never be 100% pure. Like alcohol, it is hydroscopic and will absorb water vapor right out of the air. This...

Vise job? From the description I would think most likely MAD. Then to a lesser extent uncentered broadstrike and lastly off-center. He just...
