Sideways Easel A-Frame Resultant Insight (Taken from our A Guide to Artificial High Directionals & Two Tension Rope Systems online course… ) We’ve added this compression member with a tension element added to it. The reason we did this is because we previously had to keep our resultant between our two legs. As you’ll see

Anti-gravity (also known as non-gravitational field) is a hypothetical phenomenon of creating a place or object that is free from the force of gravity. I love the word, hypothetical! – Very non-committal. You can play in a sandbox of “theory” and never be wrong. However, the other side of theory is a “proving ground”. So is
