(the budget was especially appreciated) The zig zag is a pretty well documented illusion, If I posted this same kind of walk through for an original illusion (At least I have never heard of it) would that pass the café code of conduct or would the construction methods potentially give away to much? I would think you would be OK if it is yours or in public domain--- I tell how I build but not why, I think what I post would be of little interest to the lay public.

I would think you would be OK if it is yours or in public domain even if not if you just tell how you build and not give away any secrets I would think you would be OK. --- I tell how I build but not why, I think what I post would be of little interest to the lay public. I forgot to add screws and nut and bolts to the budget above $35.00 tip-- if you use spray paint you must wear mask and goggles--- If you wear glasses and don't wear goggles you will mess them up
