Just spent two hours fixing one very bad amud... however, a perfect example of a k'milah achat - where two words are written too close together and therefore look like one word. That means the scroll was never kosher in the first place. Actually there were two examples in this amud. The pics shows the before during and after...1. asher and tsivanu - way too close together.
2. scraping out the tsadi.
3. a new slightly compressed tsadi making the requisite space.
