I don't quite grasp that, I can't see any reason why line 1 (presumably) would be omitted. The whole raison d'être for this sort of arrangement is to ensure that the framing is precise which includes displaying line 1 in its entirety and correctly positioned.
But then again I could be missing something...not just line 1.

Yes, agreed. being the positive-minded individual I am I'm thinking that this will in due course work and that a submission would be made for publication. So I'll leave it up to your good self to include said arrangement.

But it's clear that this is not going to be ready for the usual December issue. In conjunction with a demonstration at the convention next April would be ideal...but things in life don't generally work like that...

Over 3,000 more joints to be done so we shall see for convention in time.
