It's woven so what I'm trying to do is open up the roads. It's a loop pile as opposed to a cut filed a cut pile is up I'm more plush carpet. And when you putting seam together with a a normal flush like that -- a different deal it's it's a different -- you can use a straight -- it's not imperative that you get in between the -- here with this kind of a fiber -- but it continues and -- exactly it's 11 loop for each row and rows of -- but the scene right down around that will be your best best bet for the scene. So don't know my screwdrivers. I've marked -- I want to seem to be an opening up the aunts that it would take my question -- Slide that right down the road just plunged. And that -- me a nice straight edge. -- Right with a couple was made to seen as opposed to cutting across any -- It just opens up. We have. OK now that's that's the ideal spot for -- scene. Now before we go any further we have to do the same thing on the other side up right you'll notice this actually this two different rose has a high rolling along well yeah obviously you want to make sure your -- on the lower on the right on the move it to record. Okay. The same thing over here. The now the next step would be. We need to treat these gadgets because it's such a high traffic area you don't wanna run into any of us.

Worry about the cuts that -- off and we just apply just a thin -- this. To the edges right on it okay. OK now that that's tried what's the next step now ready to put the silicone eighteen tape underneath the scene this is stuff that smells funny Aaron yeah actually this is not a good product it's supposed to be real environmentally friendly folks that. -- It's a program that. OK. Now we're just gonna have to ask -- step for some minutes but the -- at this piece in position. But that halfway underneath it. Keep it up to right bringing up -- spot. And I got a dry run of making actual seems to make sure everything lines up nice. There's a couple small both the -- that but we can certainly wear those out okay. An -- ready to actually -- And now this is the relatively dangerous part -- You've got a very hot iron there. This -- melts pretty quickly. And once this is cooled you will not be able to -- We like to do was given a couple seconds that takes an -- Yeah. How hot is that I. Degrees was I don't know but hot enough that you would want to practice yet hotter than your standard dying for absolutely absolutely. And I can see out it takes an open nicely exactly. -- push it the length of the I. Won't just take this orchestrated so. The Scott had teamed up really nicely. Well also like to do once they get a little ways is put some -- aren't -- put some weight -- down flat. Make sure the group presses into the back of Iraqi. But at a just use that tool bag I put on scrap a -- it. That's a nice touch. But we want to get your new rug dirty. We're just continued its proceeded down the length in the scene sure. And you can still feel it's hot but you can't see the scenes. Now on this side you've got actually start kicking it before you can put around Iraq now that the seems cool -- alike take my stretch okay."
