Anyone else willing to participate on the contest?
We're kinda short on participants, and if no one else is interested we'll have to cancel it... :bah:

And I'll say you're correct, sir.
But haven't given up yet!
P.S.: We still need more people.

Thanks. Dont' forget to think of the height of the circles dealies. Too high and you just waste money having to use longer poles. Too low and you have to use thicker poles.
BTW, that bridge is entirely hollow tubes.
