Next, I took the four main support beams for the couch, one running along each side and two down the center in a crescent shape, with the same curve and slope as the carpet, as they were designed to contour the same wall. NEXT I TOOK THE FOUR MAIN SUPPORT BEAMS FOR THE COUCH ONE RUNNING ALONG EACH SIDE AND TWO DOWN THE CENTRE IN A CRESCENT SHAPE WITH THE SAME CURVE AND SLOPE AS THE CARPET AS THEY WERE DESIGNED TO CONTOUR THE SAME WALL
t, which, by the way, I was still entirely wearing, I cut the carpet down its center, making two semi-circular pieces, each with a moon shaped appearance, much like a wing. I based my idea in part on the observation that the Canitaurs and Zards had apparently lost, or disregarded, the springs of my time and instead used a hammock of springy, elastic cords that spread across the face of the furniture. Simply put, they stretched elastic ropes across an empty frame, almost like a trampoline made of individual cords. This created a very comfortable springing feel, for they gave enough bounce to render the surface pliable, but not overly soft. Taking the bowie knife again, I thrust it into the couch, and cut away the cushioning to reveal the support. To my great relief, I found that it was constructed in a manner similar to the other couches that I had seen. There were about two score of the cords, each being between three and four feet long. These I unattached and laid them down in a pile. KLE OF THE ANT ELECTRON SUIT WHICH BY THE WAY I WAS STILL ENTIRELY WEARING I CUT THE CARPET DOWN ITS CENTRE MAKING TWO SEMICIRCULAR PIECES EACH WITH A MOON SHAPED APPEARANCE MUCH LIKE A WING I BASED MY IDEA IN PART ON THE OBSERVATION THAT THE CANATORS AND ZARDS HAD APPARENTLY LOST OR DISREGARDED THE SPRINGS OF MY TIME AND INSTEAD USED A HAMMOCK OF SPRINGY ELASTIC CORDS THAT SPREAD ACROSS THE FACE OF THE FURNITURE SIMPLY PUT THEY STRETCHED ELASTIC ROPES ACROSS AN EMPTY FRAME ALMOST LIKE A TRAMPOLEON MADE OF INDIVIDUAL CORDS THIS CREATED A VERY COMFORTABLE SPRINGING FIELD FOR THEY GAVE ENOUGH BOUNDS TO RENDER THE SURFACE PLIABLE BUT NOT OVERLY SOFT TAKING THE BOWIE KNIFE AGAIN I THRUST IT INTO THE COUCH AND CUT AWAY THE CUSHIONING TO REVEAL THE SUPPORT TO MY GREAT RELIEF I FOUND THAT IT WAS CONSTRUCTED IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO THE OTHER COUCHES THAT I HAD SEEN THERE WERE ABOUT TWO SCORE OF THE CORDS EACH BEING BETWEEN THREE AND FOUR FEET LONG THESE I UNATTACHED AND LAID THEM DOWN IN A PILE
