17 Solid Nail Solid-less deflection so easier interlock. Solid-less infection-less surface for bacteria to lodge. Solid-stronger so we can use slots instead of holes. Dynamizing No arc of radius

23 Direction of Interlock

24 Bends instead of Arc of Radius Economical Fit canals around the world Lucky-follows the helix in proximal femur canal

25 No Arc of Radius
