In the dark days before the Erasure Tool, we had to delete Anchors and rejoin with other Anchors and suffer a lot. We could also use Pathfinder to chop away until we got close to what we wanted, then fine tune the art.

But thanks to the Erasure Tool, we can just scrub a dub dub and the art goes away, creating the new anchors and lines for us automatically. We can even erase from several selected Paths at one time.

Some of the fun stuff in this Episode includes:

• Finding the Erasure Tool
• Erasing from simple paths
• Erasing from multiple selections at once
• Which Modifier Keys give the Erasure Tool more power
• Changing the Erasure Tool Settings for more control
• and other stuff
  

So whether you're destroying or creating, the Erasure Tool is one you want to master and keep handy in your tool box.
