Looks even better completed than when you were building it. It's also quite a
bit larger than I though it would be. I love the spider butt. ;)

Same way he knows about crochet and quilting. It's scary the things he knows....

Messy looking, yes. Strong as all get out, yes. Can it be stronger? Not in that
form as I showed you the other night, but it can be stronger. Strong and light
weight...that's what you've built.
Ultimately, I do think this style will help you in a couple of ways namely
strength and versatility in building.
Excellent job, man.
