Haha, very cool! I'm curious what your process was for coming up with the work bank for this!

  Honestly I spent more time writing clues with double Os than putting together the grid. This was constructed using Crossfire and adding a OO rebus. I think you can do the same thing on Crosshare, too - I've just never tried.

    Fun one!
    
    @seanm - yup if you populate the OO rebus squares in the crosshare constructor it should be able to help you fill the rest of the grid pretty easily

    Ohh cool. And I didn't notice the clues until just now!
