Summary
My most ambitious project to date, ring type-wise, containing 51
different ring types (yes, I like to complicate things). The sides are a
pretty standard European 8 in 1 using .080", 7/16" ID stainless steel
rings (AR: 6.1). This is thus far the largest basket I have constructed,
and also the heaviest, but falls third in overall ring count. I used the
same idea for the basket bottom as seen in Basket 29, which is European 4
in 1 with each successive column containing smaller rings until the center
is reached.
