Margins of the wings entire. Wingspan 2 3⁄4 inches (70 mm).[1]
gollark: There are many.
gollark: They actually made pastes case-sensitive recently, which is a massive backward-compatibility break which broke things.
gollark: If pastebin continues being annoying, I may be *forced* to use stupid things like "version control" and "not a random public website" and "an actual IDE" and "testing before release".
gollark: At this rate I might actually have to change the potatOS development strategy.
gollark: Pastebin has made *changes* to things, and I dislike it.
