Recreating spider silk, the flexible yet tough as steel strands of protein, spun by the arachnids, has been the holy grail for material scientists for many years now. However, making it in bulk has been a little elusive, thanks to the fact that spiders are very territorial and devour each other if placed in very close quarters.

        I think that they should find more ways to use this and make it work. I wonder if they could still use the silk worms if their not as strong as the spider with out puting anything in the worm and i also wonder will it work with the spiders if it stays as strong as it is now.

            i think that thus is a bad idea to make bullet poor vest out of this stuffu because it is just a wed at first then in to something that can save a life. plus how are they going to test this? insted of doing that just make the bullet poor vest with more protection by puting more steel in it because there is a 50/50 change this will work or not. when you thing about it a tiny thing can protection lifes.
