: It DOES seem to raise more questions than it answers, but most of

: I think he doesn't depend much on trying to get epoxy to flow down
: and form any sort of filet between the cardboard segments for
: strength.
: There is one point where he alludes to appearance problems that
: will result from putting too much epoxy on and having it drool
: through to the opposite skin.
: It SEEMS that there is a dependence on the cardboard segments being
: short and stuck to each skin, though not necessarily to each
: other.
: I would expect some amount of wicking, so maybe there is a short
: filet part way on some of the joints, but he doesn't count on
: it.
: The skin spans small ('ish) areas too, so I'm guessing that the
: strength comes from having many very small boxes with a common
: "lid" and "bottom".

: Anyhow, I found the whole idea of making many many
: "forms" only a few inches apart, in 3 directions and
: from such an unusual material to be novel, fun, interesting,
: etc.

: I guess I would tend towards a more water resistant material, but
: CARDBOARD ?! - just might make me be sure to get it right and
: waterTIGHT (-:
