<p>[QUOTE="lvetterli, post: 838552, member: 130"]If you go back to the original photos, look at the second one which shows the shield shape in the center. Between the solid part of the shield and the thin framing border are vertical threads at the top and bottom and horizontal ones on the sides. Most of these show to be pairs of thread laying side by side. There are some that show the pair separated. Now go back to the first pic and see how much smaller it is and how incredibly fine the thread actually is. The more I look at the darned thing, the more impressed I am![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
