[@miserybutane298]

while this seems like such an intuitive thing to do, I am grateful for tutorials like this because honestly I am definitely the kind of person who overthinks things like this. NGL, I have spent a good 2 hours trying to figure out how I was going to evenly cut a HST to its correct size.
