Captive 4 in 2 Chain Web

Weave Description
Using single cells of 4 in 2 Captive (Captive 4 in 2 Chain) and expanding them hexagonally produces this web. It is Japanese 6 in 1 Variant with the horizontal rings doubled and captive rings inserted between them.

This weave as displayed in the sample picture using 2 ring sizes for AR-reduction (smaller captive rings) is very ring size-specific and if the captive rings aren't big enough they could slip out of their respective 4 in 2 Chain cages.

Captive rings can be made to fit inside their cages in either of 2 configurations: "properly", as the ones in the sample picture, or rotated 90 degrees.
