Using a curved needle-nose pliers, the fender washer is placed on a red hot electric range for about 15 seconds or so, then removed and placed on the board. After it burns for about five to ten seconds (aw, the delightful odor of burnt oak!) the washer is removed (with the pliers, of course!) Do not attempt this unless you possess excellent fine motor skills, are well-rested and sober! If you are married, you'll need an understanding spouse as well.
