Diamionds and squares

 
brick and manhole cover
Cracked but in use

This cracked manhole cover is seen in the street beneath our feet.  The cover features a 47 x 47 pointy diamonds pattern.  It is surrounded by a 3 x 142 squares encirclement which itself is encircled by 28 bricks.  An altogether lovely layout.

  1. Manhole covers are pretty tough; never seen a cracked one. That sems dangerous, too, if the crack grows.

  2. I am secretly hoping that the crack grows. Not that I want a dangerous situation to develop - just to see the crack keep on spreading.
