The BBC used these machines to record broadcasts on 20 lb reels of metal tape.
They still have 350,000 hours of recordings on this tape.

Looks like about 14 concrete pumpers, each being fed by multiple trucks, pouring a pad big enough to support a huge building... or your mom.

I remember that pic from an old IOTD, one of the first I saw, but I can't find it.

580:1 reduction...

xoxoxoBruce · 05-16-2018, 05:15 PM

The 580:1 reduction system seems like a very expensive way to any number of unexpected, and most likely unwanted, outcomes.
