is that such weaves have limited strength, and that a sufficient force will rip them apart. Think of Rand battling Lanfear, and having to maintain the dome, rather than tying that off. LTT's knowledge of weaves was being used in that battle so I think that means that LTT knew that the dome would be ripped apart if it wasn't maintained. I don't have the books here so correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Make one razor-thin strand of Air. Move it violently down the battlefield. Done. *NM*

Concurrance. Given what we know they can do, channelers are idiotic in battle. *NM*

Weaves don't have "edges". The weave creates an effect; the effect may simulate a sharp edge.

Strength in the Power and magnitude of effects are correlated but not dependent on one another.
