 Flaying the VR
To deal with the wiring and voltage drop problems, we were trying the VR Flay I. The Easiest Thing (hereafter known as EZ1) was to use the relay to CONNECT the (red/white) VR output to the green wire circuit, splicing instead of cutting the green wire.
In the Flay II case, the green wire is spliced, not cut, and the green harness wiring is actually fed thru the relay, as in the EZ1.
That said, the Flay II must increase the voltage somewhere, or there would not be a 4 amp draw on the far (VR) end of the circuit.

Michelangelo's The Last Judgement shows Saint Bartholomew holding the knife of his martyrdom and his flayed skin.
In works of art he is often represented with a large knife, or, as in Michelangelo's Last Judgment, with his own skin hanging over his arm, tradition holds that in Armenia he was flayed alive and then crucified with his head upside down.
This fate has led to him being adopted as the patron saint of tanners.

Flaying is normally the job of the butcher, and, in general, the methods used in flaying give first priority to producing a good quality carcass, not hide, as the animal is generally slaughtered for its meat.
The animal should be in a clean, healthy condition and the slaughter rapid and efficient.
Subsequent to flaying, the skin cools down more quickly, giving less chance of putrefaction.

Naturally, the god won and Marsyas' punishment was to be flayed alive.
