flange bushing

[Richard Brekne]

I see I did use the word "cut".  In fact I do tear... much quicker to 
begin with.  That said I suppose if you have a very accurate cutting 
device it shouldn't make all that much difference.  The pre-cuts one 
gets from Renner don't seem to have a problem lacking a rough side.  
Don't really know when you first mention it.

I always try and twist the bushing a tad so the joint isn't a straight 
line. I'm not really sure that that does any good either :).... but its 
what I learned to do so force of habit I suppose.

    Isn't tearing supposed to be better, if you are making your own? The
    rough weave left, intertwines with the opposite side.
