Bl**dy Hell Eric, that is an amazing project!
Will it be finished by October 31st?  It would frighten the 'trick and treaters' and is less messy than hot oil.

You have a lot more patience than me Eric. Don't forget it is only the strands around the web that are sticky mind not the radial ones LOL.

Deft and patient work. Well done
Spiders eat their webs daily so check it at night and listen carefully for munching ;)
