Very nice! I liked this before, and even better now that I can see how you did
it. I’ll have to build this for myself very soon (if for no other reason than to
see how well the chain works over two 8t gears).

Let me know what you think!

I think automated lunar mining is well within the reach of Moonbase. ‘Dozer
runs by the working face, where a bunch of small bricks are dumped in front of
the blade on the track, to be pushed elsewhere. Perhaps up a hill and over a
section of track the “ore” can fall through, before the ‘dozer returns to the
working face for another load. And if I replace the 1x1 bricks with soccer
balls, I can move it smoothly into a themed GBC! So would that be a
Moonbase-themed GBC, or a GBC-themed Moonbase module?
