The finished Ruff and some photos

I spent last night re-resetting the ruff! It is not perfect by any means but the starch worked and I didn't catch anything on fire.
Some ruff in progress photos are over here on my site.
I also shot some video but it will be a day or two before I get that edited and uploaded.
