(...) Yes, this is correct. The slowest station on the line will be the limiting factor in the production rate. That said, I don't think we need to "one up" anything, this is purely for fun. We've never done a large group collaborative project other (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

Perchè non fare la zona acqua ribassata rispetto al resto? Ovvero: tutti i tavoli saranno uniformi e alti tot. Il tavolo/tavolino della zona acqua viene ribassato di 10 cm o più per consentire la costruzione dei moli, dei ponti ecc. ecc. Che dite? (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.it.itlug)

(...) That's what I figured. Not having any of these motors, I cobbled it in LDRAW, and the clips in the model are too low.

(...) Correct me if I'm wrong, but the cadence will be set by the slowest assembly cell, correct? So if your goal is a a fast cadence, you need *every* cell to meet at least that minimum requirement.
