D. Scott Williamson, Expert

Anderson tells me that we need to draw seven red lines all strictly perpendicular, some with green ink, and some with transparent ink and at least one in the form of a kitten. Sounds fun, lets get to work! [ using green ink ] [ using red ink ] [ using transparent ink ] Seven perpendicular red lines One two three four five six seven. Two drawn using red ink, two drawn using green ink, and three drawn using transparent ink... and one in the form of a kitten. My name is Scott Williamson, and I am an expert. (ding)

But it doesn't look anything like what they wanted, so the clients are very unhappy.

Yes, actually it is possible to accomplish the crazy stuff being asked for here. :)

The video suggested it was a picture of said arrangement - you've made a 3D model. They're not the same thing.

[u/imtoooldforreddit]

those aren't lines.

you can make 7 perpendicular lines if you have 7 dimensions though.

Just impressed, have my upvote !

[u/scantics]

Except that they're not lines, and he didn't draw them.

Genius!! :)

See, you didn't have to start saying no so quickly. Geometry is your friend. The task was set and you did it.

This is why it costs so much. :-)
