This is a cool video and interesting technique. It seems theoretically I could follow this same procedure and reduce the warp risk. The only notable drawback or risk may be that I am currently planning a smaller patch (3.25" circle) and may not have the easy manipulation/flexibility of patch to push the patch back into the hole after back-cutting at the 45 degree, compared to the larger square he is using in this video. I would have to tack 4 times on the circle, and then cut one quadrant at a time to push this section back flush prior to tacking it in flush. I hope that makes sense - basically I am saying my patch is less flexible. I am curious what others on this thread may think of this technique.
