Controlling shot extraction pattern - Page 4

My "distribution" leaves much to be desired, i've been just basically overfilling, and sweeping clean, trying to fill holes and gaps as i go with a straight edge. I'm not happy with it though.

So with Stockfleths', the area around the perimeter is being slightly compressed while the center is just levelled?

thanks

No, it's all compressed.
The pile moves in a circle around the midpoint, but the finger provides pressure across the entire surface.
