Well, to say the truth, I'd want you to know that the spider has been built.
If the scene doesn't show this, well, there's lack of something...

I tried to model a small circuit board, but I didn't get any good result.
Probably I need to find some photos or drawings to use as reference. BTW
I'll try to add smaller screws, screwdrivers et similia.

I didn't notice it before you told me, but doesn't this happen in real life?
IMHO the shadow shouldn't darken the PC screen since it's emitting light. I
may be wrong.
