Salvaged 1 outa 2

First off I suck at photography. This is just to show what you can do when stuff goes south. Two blanks one was DOA. Kit was a pia. Acrylic split when last fitting seated. Glued it back hand sanded and polished. I can't see where damage was. The lines in blank aren't scratches just how it looks

I like successful recoveries. Well done and good looking result
