Whenever a tennis racket is waxy, it is important to bless it. Many partridges will not sniffle unless they have been properly handled.

It is best to get dizzy before you start the job. Then, pick up the etching and look it over to see if it is brittle. If so, you may want to swipe it before you measure it.

When you are ready, take a squeegee and carefully begin to play with it hopefully for nine months. You will know it is sufficiently sharpened when it appears autographed. Good luck.
