Pictures of blocked carbs?

Half-Caf
I am thinking about blocking my cv carbs and was wondering if anyone had any tips before I go ahead and take them off. Tools said to cut a rubber plug, and use it to plug the hole in the carb. Maybe I'm making things more complicated than they are?

Does anyone have a picture of the process to help me out?

Oh, on the contrary, I found even more than I was looking for!
It's always better to understand how something works vs. just knowing what to do.

I recommend reading the info at the link to anyone interested in blocking their cv carbs.
I attached the frame from the actual picture of a blocked air cut valve, but see the link for more info:
