Spidey Web

-jimmy wagner

Hey Ten Right angles,
i decided that since i didn't want to do any work that i would just do this web spider thingy because i have nothing better to do. SO here are some pictures.

*PLEASE READ*: Hopefully someone can pick this up who will be going on sunday to put it up as i might not be. i'm at college ten.

The middle is kind of a mess because i was still figuring out how to do it, but just put one of the big spiders or something there and it will cover it up.
I tried using knots first, but that failed once i realized that the spool of string would be inconvenient to tie knots. So i went with tape. i hope it holds and i hope it's not too bad.


i started out by just taping the middle of each of the 5 strings to the circle as straight as i could.
i then taped down the ends, and started wrapping the string on the web starting in the middle.

This is the 360 degree circle that i used to evenly spread out the strings. Making two crosses with 4 strings didn't tickle my fancy, so i went with 5 strings, meaning about 72 degrees between each which made it a little bit harder, but looks better i think.







At about this point i was like, "Holy shit this just might actually work."
You can see the middle paper, which was the protractor to make the lines evenly spaced. Also, the tape used to tape down the ends of the strings.




And here's the end result:



Oh and sorry about the quality of the photos. They are from my crappy phone.
