Mike,

Do you have the lattice structure BMP file that the GMLTC used to build their
layout?

Thanks
Jim
I just sent the .bmp file to Jim - would there be any interest in me posting
it to brickshelf?  It's not a complicated system - it just requires a LOT of
basic bricks...

Ya. or if I get a chance I might LDraw something up that shows it.

It does require a LOT of bricks but not nearly as many as a solid would. It's
simple, and when I first saw it I said "that'll never work" but it's amazingly
strong and lightweight with a relatively low density for something made of 2x2
and 2x4 bricks exclusively (except at the edges where it has to interlock with
other things)
