Comment on Sometimes fewer walls are better

Really interesting! I wonder what would happen if you combine these two properties. Suppose some length of the middle is all walls, and the hooks are infill, or vice versa. Is there an optimal mix that maximizes the weight it can support in your testing, or have you found the optimal configuration (with infill along the entire length) already?

I haven’t done any tests where the tensile/breaking strength is relevant, just rigidity. Maybe it’s possible to optimize the infill based on finite element analysis or something, but that’s not a rabbit hole I’m looking to go down.
