Well, since the 3rd is refected with a LWSS, slowing it down allows to shift that glider back whereever you like, though there is a phase-parity issue to worry about, but as far as I can tell it actually matches the offset needed to make the units I and FWKnightship’s units needs, but one might need...

Is there a way to do this particular eater weld? I'm thinking no. (I keep being surprised at what can be welded, though, because I'm still not very good at welding.) In this case, compare to the situation when the eater heads are one cell farther apart, when the weld is easy: x = 9, y = 7, rule = B...

Hi. I am trying to make a complex circuit. I adapted it to use backrake 2 rather than backrake 1. Does anyone know of a backrake 2 gun? Preferably period 30.

Hi again, well, I found something that is not obviously useful, but turns out to be, twice.

Well well, I managed to define a "spine" with 8 glider trails.

well, with an extra eater, the repeat time is 206, so I guess the ad-hoc "must have repeat time of 300" is met, and it is already better than many other conduit: x = 156, y = 188, rule = LifeHistory 12$64.2A$63.B2AB11.2A.A.2A$64.3B4.A.2A.A2.A.2A2.A$63.B.B5.2A.A.2A.A4.

Well I knew it could be constructed, but did not feel like pushing it here, for some strange reason there is many 180deg reflectors that showed up lately, it might be time to make a pattern that contains them all, and look for the "smallest" possible for each possible offset.
