David, any similarities or differences compared to the tube construction techniques of the Maserati Birdcage race cars. From the Maserati history:

" The chassis was all new and a marvel of engineering excellence. Made up of around 200 separate small diameter tubes the spaceframe construction was both light and rigid. After the intricate assembly of tubes, some of which was visible through the windshield, it was quickly nick-named 'Birdcage'. "

" Indeed it went on to produce several masterpieces of the art including the Tipo 60 and the 61 "Birdcage" "


The name for your " masterpieces of the art " is ?
