BRITISH WOMEN GET SPIDER WEB Collecting spider web for precision sighting instruments is one of the duties performed by women in the British auxil iary territorial service. Octob er spider web in Great Britain according to experts, is most suitable for sighting instru ments. The collection requires a delicate touch and a steady hand. The woman web collector catches a spider with one hand and drops it from one hand to the other. As the spider falls, it spins a fine web. This strand is attached to a metal frame smeared with shellac, and the frames are stored for future use. When this fine strand is not fine enough, ATS crafts- women split a strand in two under the microscope.
