These twelve 23 method peals may be a source of a useful progression for bands that know the methods used in Smith's 23 to those used in Don Morrison's cyclic part-head 23-spliced with all the 5678s, etc. Parts from the different arrangments must not be mixed. Each arrangement contains 224 of each method with 160 changes of method and all the work of every method for every bell and no backstroke 87s. The numbers of rollups in each arrangement is shown in the following table:
