When hollowing and you can't see the tool tip, you have to cut by

introduced a word I had not heard before which describes the condition
of "knowing where the tip of the tool is even though you can't see
it". It's related to phantom limb, I think. Can anyone remind me of
the word? It's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't find it.


The only word that comes to mind is "GUESSING" Tom


I'd add the word - EXPERIENCE
