Mr. Stombaugh. Yes; that is correct.
Mr. Eisenberg. How many, if any, square-cut edges did you notice?
Mr. Stombaugh. I found—according to my drawing—two machine-cut edges.
Mr. Eisenberg. Would that indicate—well, do you form any opinion as to, on the basis of that, as to the origin, possible origin, of the tape?
Mr. Stombaugh. The origin of the tape as far as the manufacturer——
Mr. Eisenberg. What I am referring to is this: on the basis of that would you draw an inference that the person had taken—whoever made this bag—had taken two lengths of tape from a dispensing machine and had subsequently torn it up into smaller strips, or do you think he had one length of tape from a dispensing machine which he subsequently tore up into smaller strips?
Mr. Stombaugh. From the ends that I could see, now I don't know whether there were any ends underneath which I did not have a chance to look at, I don't have anything in my notes, but from what I can see it would appear he took a strip of tape, machine-cut from a dispenser, and used that entire strip, thus using up both ends of the tape because we have two machine-cut ends.
Mr. Eisenberg. In other words, it would be a machine-cut strip at the beginning of the tape which the person pulled out, left over from the last cut?
Mr. Stombaugh. That is right.
Mr. Eisenberg. And a machine-cut at the end, where the person himself ripped the tape from the machine?
