The aqua beads are from two different lots, and the smaller lot are flat and completely clear, like yours. And silk beading cord comes in wide range of thicknesses, from super-fine stuff for pearls to fairly heavy twists. ;)
I believe this bit from Book of Lost Tales is the quote you're looking for:
"He was tall as a young tree, lithe, immensely strong, able swiftly to draw a great war-bow and shoot down a Nazgûl, endowed with the remendous vitality of Elvish bodies, so hard and resistant to hurt that he went only in light shoes over rock or through snow, the most tireless of all the Fellowship."
And yeah, David Salo was a regular on the newsgroups (may still be, I've not checked in there for a while.)
More self-taught laziness here, surprise surprise. But, ah, a bit older than you. HEY YOU DANG KIDS GET OFFA MY LAWN!!!
Ah well, I've already offered Meri some musical goodness, perhaps extra downloads will suffice for penance?
