This 12-sided stone represents the high level of mastery at masonry achieved by the incas. The fit between rocks is near perfect and it is hard to find a gap of a milimeter. Absolutely no mortar used here.
I should’ve taken a closeup pic to show it.
The journey is the objective.

@motojobobo that is insane!! No mortar!? How in the hell??

I think its one of those 'the excruciatingly painful executions will continue until you get it right.'
It really is amazing though -

I went to vote today for local elections in the town hall building in Pineville. They have a history of Pineville, One of the items was that Cone Mills had a plant here which opened in 1948 with 500 employees. It closed in 1991.

Didn't realize they had multiple plants! I know Imogene and Willie here in Nashville got a bunch of fabric from them a few years ago and did some limited jeans with them in certain cuts. I have a few of them, and they are some of my go-to summer jams (lightweight, full of holes, stretchy)

@Mr-Eddy Just saw your clothes line. This cracked me up. Although grateful that not delicate denim.
