      Thanks!

      Fun puzzle, thanks! Maybe it's because it's early and coffee hasn't kicked in but I am not a fan of the new "bar" feature.
      • Sommersmith constructor · 2021-12-24T16:53:30.601Z
        Thanks for solving! I probably won't use bars all that often, but it's nice to have an extra tool in the kit!

                            Have not seen the bars before. These were used to good effect... perfect, even.
