<p>[QUOTE="Fugio1, post: 3879964, member: 89970"]The real mystery to me is not the purpose, but the process. I know of no rational argument to the frequent suggestion that the serrations were done manually with a chisel. This would have added at least 20x to the labor to prepare the flans. There must have been some sort of "machine" that could apply these serrations either very quickly to one or more flans.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
