This is a masterpiece! Mind-blowing how it all comes together given so little information. Puzzle resists until the very end. I really liked that the ambiguity regarding most of the lines persisted until the puzzle collapsed (if ever used). How intricate is the interplay between the lines is absolutely fascinating and beyond the wildest imagination how one could set such a piece together. Take a bow, Math Pesto!

Really good, I liked the ambiguity aspect and having to work out how to resolve that
