So our proposal is we prefab a bunch of metal pieces and assemble them on-site?
As opposed to our current method where we carve bridges out of a big block of metal?
Hahahaha absolutely. :D The difference is, that they come from a 3D printer and that's cool.
Well no, you put a conveyor belt in front of all the 3d printers, and when each part is done, it's dumped onto the conveyor belt, which leads all the pieces to an AI powered robot arm which assembles the bridge.
Yeah, I guess you could just run the conveyor belt and arm all the way to where the bridge needs to go.
All problems can be reduced to Factorio.
Where's the train? Why is there no train in the solution?
The bridge is science to unlock the train, of course.
Seriously, how we make bridges now with giant CNC machines is so inefficient! And all these people saying we should print lots of blocks to put together are totally forgetting about Legos, we all just need to donate our old Legos to Baltimore and let kids from anywhere come volunteer to build it. Free bridge and free child labour! Everyone wins
