Charles, I have created a couple of variants that use carriages and zemels and I hope to create many more variants using many more of the pieces you have named. I have also given names myself to a whole new class of pieces inspired by Knappen's Quinquereme (Pentere) and Leeloo. I would like to share them with you directly, so please email me so that I can email you back (since your email address doesn't appear with your user name).

I have recently added a page for non-Straight linepieces, Mighty Like a Rose (mighty.html in this directory). I would be interested to know if you can better any of my suggestions, especially the compounds of two 90° Crooked pieces. I plan to have a future page for compounds mixing Straight/Curved/Crooked paths, and would be interested in further ideas. How many names are we talking about? That way I can judge whether the number is too many to include in a comment. In any case it would be interestig to see a sample of ideas before making contact by e-mail. Your variants appear not to have been submitted yet. Have I missed something?
