The world of silicon is actually built on steel.
In 1929, American steel mills produced 63M tons annually. In 1938, mills produced half of that. By 1944, we shot up to 80M tons (~60% of global steel production at the time), cementing an allied victory in WWII. Today we produce ~80M tons, but itβs only 4% of global production

It works! It'll move much more aggressively, but this is about the limit of passenger comfort. Base is solid, motion is smooth and quiet. All parts either available off the shelf or made by OSH Cut. Now we need to disassemble and powder coat it.

rack sundries pricing is so funny. It's basically cheaper for me to buy an old blade server than to buy a sheet metal shelf.
