Abstract	In order to learn the concept of statistical techniques one needs to run real experiments that generate reliable data. In practice, the data from some well-defined process or system is very costly and time consuming. It is difficult to run real experiments during the teaching period in the university. To overcome these difficulties, statisticians developed simple and very economical experiments, which can be performed in the class by the students. Stone studied the variation, bias, stability and statistical quality control through the Blind Paper Cutting (BPC) experiment. In this article, the Blind Paper Cutting experiment is demonstrated on the basis of basic principles of experiment design. A BPC experiment is performed considering different factors, and important factors to optimise the response are identified through complete factorial design. The appropriate response model using important factors has been constructed. (Author).
