    Oh very clever! I was confused when I had EATINMATING for a while, and counted only 4 spanners, and then the aha. I shouldn't've expected anything non-sus (or should have?). Good work you two!

      I ended up with… MAGINEERING. Didn’t even bother counting the spanners. I had a bit of a Schrödinger suspicion when I realized that both ROW and TOW made sense.

      Some clues that didn't make the cut:
      Contributes (to) leNds / leAds
      Colored tinGed / tinTed
      Mix, like watercolors bleNd / bleEd
      Oft-brick structure wEll / wAll
      Cook Roast / Toast
      Like a clean slate blaNk / blaCk
      Move frictionlessly Glide / Slide
      There's always the chance that these will be used in future schroedingers, so kindly erase your memory immediately after reading these, thanks

        Excellent cluing! I was just about to comment that I only counted 4 spanners, and then I realized...

          Very impressive (and fun)!

            As always, you add an extra flair to everything. Very impressive work!

              Very clever. It obviously took me way too long to glom onto what was going on :)
