    eight cylinder

    is this yer first cylinder? if so, i'd advise getting a 2" or so dia pipe coupler to give it a whack. cylinders are sort of odd to work at first. at times you have to continually adjust your wrist, and then fade into flat mode, then back again when cutting scrolls. if you try using a coupler...
