Some properties of a particular static, axially symmetric space-time

The behavior of the directional singularities of a family of Weyl solutions is examined. By examining the space-time in a different coordinate system, the directional singularities are understood. The singular points are actually extended hypersurfaces which have been collapsed to a point by an improper choice of coordinates. The singular structure is examined in the new coordinate system. The coordinate system shows the space-time to be geodesically incomplete. A completion of the symmetry axis is described.
