Hi all :-)

Gordon :-), the idea of the folding c_gallows_s FOLDing KEY is to 
rotate _or Flip your vellum over every now and then (randomly) as 
scribed, th1s noted by reader... It is a tiring process as IT MIRRORS 
ITself all the time in the CODING/DECODE'ing  - kind of like telling 
you to only talk ~english~ then NOW talk ~spanish~ .. Stop! now talk 
~english~... stop.. NOW talk just SPANISH!! ArrGGgggg - they They 
THEY(?) s/he? just stuck to one or the other near the end!!!!!!
But, IT's NOT 2 seperate languages but 2 seperate ~mirror~ KEYS! 
THEY(?) s/he(?) quit FLIPPING the key near the END (f103r to end 
notably to my eye).

Best to you & yours

 Dear Dan,
 
 As I envisage it, the creator (regardless of whether it was a hoax or a code)
 would prepare a batch of grilles. These grilles could be re-used with any
 table, so project fatigue wouldn't affect this. Creating a table takes two or
 three hours, and would probably be a welcome change from using a table, so
 again there probably wouldn't be a problem there.
 
 I don't think that the same page would involve all the tables and all the
 grilles - at most, I was thinking of a couple of tables and several grilles, so
 fatigue again wouldn't be much of an issue - it's the same amount of effort
 whichever grille you use, and (depending on various practical issues) having
 two tables live at once isn't a huge problem - more than two would be.
 
 Best wishes,
 
 Gordon
