One more example. This was the first one I attempted. When I acquired it 15 years ago, I tried to remove a new mat from it and broke it in half. It's been stored in two pieces since then.

I did not do a good job of matching the halves together - in practice they fit almost perfectly, but when I glued them to the mat, my hands must have slipped (notice it was also glued to the mat slightly off-center, but it was off-center originally, so I guess that's okay). You can also see a vertical tear at the bottom left that I created by not handling the wet print properly. It could have been a much better result, but this is why I say you should practice before attempting on anything important. These are both photos taken in bad light, so use your imagination.
