I'm more confused than ever. Jason seems to be saying place the DR edge (red/white) fist and Roux seems to be saying place it last.
If I place it last, it needs to come off the right face into the vertical slice or "ring" before I can get it back in the correct location on the right face right? --- In [email protected], "Gilles Roux" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Step 2 is pretty hard, and of step 2 the DR edge is the hardest to > > insert.
