Good one.

did i miss something easier?

after line/color logic i used edge logic on the 6 in c1 to get all but a large area in the bottom right corner solved

then i used edge logic on the last 3 in r12 to get 2 dots (subsequent line logic lets you get a bunch of dots in r17, forming another "edge")

then i used edge logic on the 7 in r18 (getting 1 dot in r18c8) and then it solved out with line logic

nice solve without guessing

Nice puzzle, Brian. Very tricky to work through, but such an enjoyable challenge.

Found to be logically solvable by gator.

Fun puzzle Brian! I don't know if I guessed or used logic, to be quite honest, but in the end, I solved this tricky puzzle. Fun!

Nice visualization. I can't say that I've ever heard this slang term before.

The saw was easy. The buck was hard, just as in real life. Great puzzle, though.
