Not many wood bridges around these days, happy to see this one in small town USA

    Reminds me of a “toothpick bridge” competition I competed in back in middle(?) school. For no particular reason that I can remember, my group used Gorilla Glue instead of white glue or wood glue. This resulted in some good things and some bad things.

    The good: the bridge survived what was supposed to be destructive testing with no damage whatsoever!

    The bad: that’s because the glue joints just stretched elastically and the whole thing deflected into a banana shape without actually holding any weight, LOL.
