Hi Gary, I used the "make thermal" SKILL routine (mkth) and added a circle thermal. I removed the top/bottom etch shapes, and added some rectangle shapes top/bottom I can generate a "slotted" thermal flash in a matter or minutes. I might not be "blonde" perfect, but I'd use it if I needed to. Good day.
