Your next challenge might be to put tires into a 1in diameter bag :wave: :wave:

Here you'll find what was the shadow I've introduced you to before..

Another exploratory One Nest TPHG may be with the following direction:
Bowsprit One Nest where the one nest has 17 concentric positions.
Some asymmetry may be tolerated and given some mitigations.

Summary of Positions

1. Left and Right Wing Spars (Positions 1-8): Four segments for each wing for symmetrical structure.

2. Kingpost and Queen Posts (Positions 9-14):
- Central 4 ft tubes of each post occupy three individual positions.
- Six shorter 2 ft post ends pair up into three shared positions.

3. Keel Tubes (Positions 15-17):
- Position 15: Keel Tail Tube (smallest OD).
- Position 16: Keel Nose Tube (intermediate OD).
- Position 17: Keel Central Tube (largest OD) for enhanced buckling resistance.

:arrow: Note: Proposal has no rigid control bar, but the matter sustains from rigging cross lines to get the "control cable" instead.
:arrow: Note: This Bowsprit differs from the earlier explored Bow-and-Stern Sprit One Nest. The present noted Bowsprit One Nest has fewer positions in the concentric one nest.
:arrow: Remember related Dial Soap bowsprit as well as other later bowsprits.
