once I exhausted line logic, I used edge logic on the bottom row.

Wow this so neat,the iron looks cool,well i guess it should look hot,but it looks cool. I doubt there are many people who use irons for their intended purpose anymore,i do know i've had to duck and dodge a few in my lifetime.lol.

line logic gets you about halfway done
then look at the 3 large black areas in c6-8
all 3 of them can not extend down to r10 or r11 (each of those rows have only 2s) so at least one of those columns will extend up into r2-3 allowing you to place dots in r3c11 r2c4 and r2c10-11
then line logic to solve
nice solve

good puzzle, Sensei.
#11: bugaboo (bugaboo) on May 24, 2011
recheck your coordinates in comment 7 dbouldin as both of those that you mentioned are actually black and not dots

in fact how can edge logic even be done in r20 as both 2 clues in that row ultimately are correctly placed up against each edge (the edges that are created in columns 3 and 12 as a result of line logic) so no matter which edge you try and do edge logic on you will just end up at the correct solution

Fun logic, and recognizable image. Nice one, Tom.

I just finished ironing and said ..." I deserve at least a little puzzle".
This is totally true! Nice one Tom.

Found to be logically solvable by gator.

I HATE ironing. I'd rather promote the wrinkled look.
