If you think that's big check out the photo I took of Igor this June: http://www.swtpc.com/big_spider_in_garage.jpg He's on a door jamb, and posed for the photo. That's a hinge at the 22.25 inch mark. He lived in my garage for a couple of years and we'd see each other every now and then. As far as spiders go, he lived to a ripe old age. I noticed sometime in August that he wasn't around anymore. In September, while working at my workbench, a long spider leg suddenly fell onto the bench. Looking up, I discovered what was left of Igor. He'd died in web. Bill
