    any architectural design students in here?

    or anyone who knows anything about it? im in the middle of a major renovation at the Blunt Tech northern command center and have a problem with a wall that was just built. while its not bad, its distorting late in the day when the sun moves too far into the western sky

      You mean, it's distorted but easiest to see late in the day?

        sorry for not being more clear. i think pictures would best explain what i mean. im meeting with a stone mason right now but i will post up a pic of the wall as soon as im done. this guy says its the best he can do but im hoping for a new design that wont distort as the sun moves across the sky. ill post up a pic soon

            so what I'm gathering is that as the sun changes angles, the wall appears to distort more and more. Honestly, it sounds like the bricklayer screwed up and made the wall uneven, but it is easiest to see when the light is coming closer to parallel to the wall.

                i hope this clears it up. this pic was taken at 2pm gods country time. the wall looks great from 10am to 2pm but then after 2pm the ballsack starts to distort while the shaft starts a wicked curve to the left. im at a loss here. maybe this is the best i can hope for. what do you think??

                  There is nothing wrong with the hook. Or so I've been told.

                      The bricks are too thick. As the sun descends, the outside opening of the wall starts to cast a shadow over the inside opening of the wall and distorts it. (Kinda like if you look down a paper towel tube straight down, you see a circle, but if you swivel the tube at an angle, you see more of a football shape.)

                              I definitely understand your troubles. Luckily on my second attempt my structure is standing tall and proud.



                              Anyways, the weather sure is crazy today:
