    I thought we were done with this stuff, then along comes this beauty, a Crinkle Crankle Wall. More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crinkle_crankle_wall . Not just for aesthetics, this wall building technique has legitimate structural benefits.

    Nice one...looks like a fun Crinkle, Crankle meander in the west forty. Cool idea aesthetically as well as structurally...and if Thomas Jefferson used it on U of V...OK then.

    Takes twice as many bricks to build the wall but 4 times as strong at the same time cool.
