I tried the non-template me tear it myself approach which got me into this 
mess in the first place.
I'm now going to try using an idiot template. I have a feeling no more 
messes. 
My leaders will no longer possess my inimitable personality; only to be 
snipped off in the end.

    Mark, I've got a template from the 1950s and a sharp pocket knife that 
    will do a much better job.  It's a Leica knock-off, but works just fine.
    
    I, too, have seen film chips in my Barnacks, but have always been able 
    to fish them out.
