after initial line/color logic:

el the 5 clue in c30 (completely placeable in r36-40)
ll
el the 12 clue in c13 to dot r25-26
ll to finish

if you choose to use edge logic on the 12 clue in c13 first (before using edge logic on the 5 clue in c30) you can place dots in r25-27 and will still end up using edge logic on the 5 clue in c30 toward the end, but it is a completely different solve doing it that route (and a little tougher)

both ways are great fun to solve this puzzle though

nicely done

of course no guessing

Wonderful, David. This really deserves a much higher rating. The solve was pretty tricky, but when the image is this good, the solve is worth it.

Thanks Teresa!

I saw this with a ? and said:" David will never do that". Of course he didn't and voila, the ? disappear. Excellent image!
