I've just a little note about chipping and twin-scaling.
If you haven't done it, try it.
Follow the instructions about cleanliness and you will get great results. If you have a bulb to spare, don't be put off by this technique. It works! It's really quite exciting to watch little bulbs form from simple slices of bulb and plate.
