Maybe you can make a decent-looking set of flashes and garters in 10 minutes, but I can't.

I'm going to second Barb's statement that perhaps some people can make what could be called flashes and garters in 10 min. That someone is not me either.

Do a search here for making flashes. There are four or five very good pictorial tutorials on how it's done. Barb has done one, I have, the FHCAG has done one or two. Now try doing the same thing yourself. I bet you can't finish in less than 1 hour. I'm getting pretty good at doing flashes and my average time is 55 to 65 min. for a set.
