As so often I am the first to appeal for help this week. Can anyone enlighten me as to what scaling component letters might mean? I have made good progress but not found 20 misprints yet so am very much struggling. 34 across might help: Blasts earl, removed from regions by King (5) I suspect blasts might have the misprint. Thank you one and all.

Scaling means some letters go across more than one cell

Keep going jogamel! I agree, it's a beautifully novel construction you'll see at the end!
