A system and method of forming a stack of pads, wherein each of the pads is rotationally askew with respect to its immediate neighbors in the stack. A cutting wheel is provided with cutting forms. The cutting forms are rotated by an offset angle, relative each adjacent cutting form. The cutting wheel is run over material to cut pads. Each of the pads sequentially cut is rotationally offset by the same offset angle as are the cutting forms. As the pads are cut, the pads are sequentially placed into a vertical stack. Each of the pads in the vertical stack is offset from immediately adjacent pads by the offset angle. The pads are formed into shapes that are mostly circular but have recessed areas that create salient points on the pads. The offset angles of each of the pads enables these salient points to be readily grasped.

1. A method of forming a stack of pads, comprising the steps of: providing a cutting wheel having a plurality of cutting forms disposed thereon, wherein each of said cutting forms has an identical shape, wherein each of said cutting forms is rotated by an offset angle, relative an adjacent cutting form;running said cutting wheel over a length of material, wherein said cutting forms cut pads from said length of material, wherein said pads have said identical shape of said cutting forms and each of said pads sequentially cut from said length of material is rotationally offset by said offset angle;stacking said pads into a vertical stack, wherein each of said pads in said stack is offset from immediately adjacent pads by said offset angle; andplacing said vertical stack into a container. 2. The method according to claim 1, further including the step of adding liquid to said container. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein said identical shape of said cutting forms produces pads, wherein each of said pads has a circular body and a relief formed into a section of said circular body, wherein said relief forms two salient points on said pad where said circular body transitions into said relief. 4. The method according to claim 3, wherein said two salient points are symmetrically formed on each of said pads. 5. The method according to claim 3, wherein said two salient points are asymmetrically formed on each of said pads. 6. The method according to claim 3, wherein said circular body has a periphery that follows a circular path and said section of said circular body taken by said relief disrupts said circular path of said periphery throughout an arcuate angle. 7. The method according to claim 6, wherein said arcuate angle is less than said offset angle. 8. The method according to claim 6, wherein said arcuate angle is half of said offset angle. 9. A method of forming a stack of pads, comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of sequential cutters, wherein each of said sequential cutters cuts an identical shape, and wherein each of said sequential cutters is rotated by an offset angle, relative an adjacent one of said sequential cutters;cutting a piece of material with said plurality of sequential cutters to form pads, wherein said pads have said identical shape and each of said pads sequentially cut from said piece of material is rotationally offset by said offset angle;stacking said pads into a vertical stack, wherein each of said pads in said stack is offset from immediately adjacent pads by said offset angle. 10. The method according to claim 9, further including the step of placing said vertical stack into a container. 11. The method according to claim 10, further including the step of adding liquid to said container. 12. The method according to claim 10, wherein said identical shape of said pads includes a circular body and a relief formed into a section of said circular body, wherein said relief forms two salient points on said pad where said circular body transitions into said relief. 13. The method according to claim 12, wherein said two salient points are symmetrically formed on each of said pads. 14. The method according to claim 12, wherein said two salient points are asymmetrically formed on each of said pads. 15. The method according to claim 12, wherein said circular body has a periphery that follows a circular path and said section of said circular body taken by said relief disrupts said circular path of said periphery throughout an arcuate angle. 16. The method according to claim 15, wherein said arcuate angle is less than said offset angle. 17. The method according to claim 15, wherein said arcuate angle is half of said offset angle.
