wow. i wish i had read this back when we did the Aida build from hell last season. that sailor's palm so would have come in handy. our hands were killing us from trying to find things that would cut through the heavy cording we used to make the wigs. thankfully i ordered a bunch of taxidermy needles that helped a ton and my dad found some ratcheting garden shears that worked great too. i have carpal tunnel in my hands so they're no where near as strong as they used to be and sometimes work just kills them.
