Have a great weekend everyone!!! :)

After all, how much taller can Bluto get? Or do they put in a tower crane? Counter-weighting would be fun. Serious questions. Bluto was about maxed out putting the nose on. Exciting times!

Any chance the Heavy pad is a water tower base, with Star Hopper to be the actual tank? Thank you for the content. Exciting times!

I think the red parts are part of a giant coffee machine to keep them awake at night whilst doing these tests :-)

1:38 A big oops. That pic and others in that sequence (not shown by you) show the crane deduction was incorrect. The beam actually bolts the two SPMTs together. In fact, the right SPMT has one in front of it as well with another plate bolted on, ready for something. To speculate: this will be a *four* SPMT combo, which will allow a low cradle between the fore and aft pair. A full 50m SS or a 72m SH will sit in this super stable position. Four of them aren't needed for the mass, but a 9 meter wide cradle between two would be too wide for the road.

10:40 They look like the interior part of a valve - the blade rotates parallel to the flow for open, perpendicular for closed. The red hydraulics move it.

RGV is out with new flyover photos. Fantastic. Patreon get early look. Join and support.
