Is there a thread that goes into the mechanics of what shapes of tar/gel are fully cuttable using only 1 delver and no mothers? I assume there must be but my searching has failed.

The situation that brings it up is I'm trying to cut a 6x6 square of tar and having no luck, not sure whether it's possible, but I would like a good guide to all situations like this, I'm sure somebody has already written one.

For gel, this was posted a while back. It's a bit complicated, though.

You can also play the Tarstuff level of Advanced Concepts 2, it explains the finer points of tarstuff cuttability with nice visual aids.
