Blimey....I wish I was that confident.
Amateur fumbling comes to mind ;)
Do you think the music might help?

Marking
Easy, for beginners, seems very safe and not the least important "tool" You can make by Yourself. Bracelet ( cheaper - the better), some glue, bath sponge-puff.
I mark with cylinder when saw this, maybe when break the cylinder I will make like this..
 
thanks for the reply everyone some nice videos don't think ill find it as handy as that though
 
Practice on drones - lashings of them available at this time of year. If attempting to clip just watch that you don't clip a leg as well!
