Title: Wire between nodes.
Post by: sittinguphigh on April 04, 2013,

I was thinking about having Ray make the wire between the nodes for me at 2 inches.
Is there any foreseeing problems in that?

I don't see a problem with that. The only thing I can think of, there may be a minimum spacing that can be assembled.

Will the flex strips work?

Might make it harder to cut and splice replacement nodes. You can always move the nodes closer together and at night nobody will see the wire is not laying flat.

I need flexibility is all directions. I will be cutting and adding longer wire between groups of nodes.
I guess I can do it at 3 inches. Then if I need to zip tie the wire shorter.
