Hmm, another thought for the latice... Are there any tubes the diameter of a stud? If so, you could use a latice fence with tubes stucking through. I think that might get the idea across pretty well. Frank (21 years ago, 11-Feb-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.town)

Bravo, Brad. Another impressive addition to the megalopolis. And a fun write-up as well. I'm still wondering, though, why nobody ever responded to (URL) this post>. Maybe you're just not at liberty to talk about it though. @8^) Regards, -Brendan (21 years ago, 10-Feb-04, to lugnet.town, FTX)
