    Rail Fence is a fun and easy top. The first one I made stank though. I used scissors to cut the blocks and I learned that I was also a hacker with them. Once I got a rotary cutter, it changed my perspective totally on the accuracy they provide vs. scissors. Don't forget to press the strips before you cut your blocks!
