      Have you ever seen a patternless crossword puzzle? All white squares. No numbers in the puzzle. You have to figure out where the words start/end and fill in the black squares...

          In concise, I think 17 down is "rake" and 18 across is "mass"

            Also in concise, I think 13 down is "cravat" and 19 across is "reaction"

                  Jumbo General Knowledge, 48 across, I think "honeybee"

                  This one should be called trivia. I'm not good at trivia.

                    I feel this latter is closest to yours in that any answer is an aid to multiple other clues.

                      do-able; I've left the final answer for... you
