But Guy you know I am not human & I just pop over to this part of the multiverse for a visit and a laugh.

Oh dear, no one has any inspiration.
I am struggling to think of clues.
A fairly simple google search with 2 words in it would give a result.

That is a song from the Carpenters... Image

Hum,... googling the words: carpenter wood chain" give me the stunning result of a wooden chain:

It's the only explanation I can find...

WOW! Is that a solution, Sherlockx? Could it be you made a wooden chain on your hoodoo? Can that be strong enough to hold a man?

Oh yes Guy that is right but only half the answer. :lol:
You have 10 lengths of wood 10 metres long so how do you get 300 metres of chain out of them? :twisted:
Can that be strong enough to hold a man?

Yes that is why I specified the type of wood, the same sort that was/is used in building aircraft frames if you go back in time to the days of the sopwith camel,spitfire,mustang etc.

Also how do you join the lengths of chain?

The current World record is 36.2 metres from a single length of wood by Karl Ruscha

Hum,... a little to technical for me to explain, but I think from 10 meter wood you can make 30 meter chain. It's a carpenter job but it has to do with the shape of the links, making them in one direction and then using them in another direction. As they are rectangular the length changes...

(Like I said, much to technical... :? )
