[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 362194, member: 1715"] I spoke with the gal at the Calibrate 800 number. She pointed out that you needed to get the band above the hair line to do a good job and that there was a "ridge" there to hold the band in place... So we ran a group of rough cutter bulls back through the chute. We first tried the wire saw as Benz recommended but our saw was ****. The bulls with curved or (6 to 8 inches) long horns seemed to work well with the bands. My daughter called them burretts. The shorter horns had too much taper to hold a band in place and we gouged them out the old fashioned way. :D [/QUOTE]
