Hey Dave,

From http://www.uq.net.au/~zzdkeena/ one might get the idea that the Zome folks haven't implemented your green strut idea yet.

But I recently saw a kit called "Advanced Mathematics" which did contain green struts.

Did your ideas in fact help this product to be developed?

Should I buy the kit? It's between 100 and 200 US$.

Dave,

See http://store.yahoo.com/zome-tool/admatkit.html -- this is the kit
I was talking about.

Yes. I get an acknowledgment, among others, on the doco with the green
line kit.

It might be better to get the creator kit with a different set of
greens more later.

Umm . . . did you mean it might be better to get the creator kit
first and then a kit with more greens later?

Good point. I've fixed that now.

Yes. There's more detail about that now at the above URL

US$.

I earlier wrote (in a hurry):

This is wrong. My more considered recommendations are now at the above
URL.

"The only problem with the Advanced Math kit is that it doesn't have
any short whole greens (G0). I recommend adding 48 of these (at
US$9.60)."

I can't figure out how to order 48 short whole greens from the
website. Can you help?

Someone actually has an outstanding question -- maybe you can handle
it, Dave?

You can't order them via the web. Just email your entire order to
sales@zometool.com.

Are you getting the bundle of the Adv Math kit with George Hart and
Henri Picitto's Zome Geometry book?
