"I assume you're following along at home" - not so fast, I'm still unrolling my steel plates! It's hard to do alone...

This is like the 3rd iteration of this video. And the value of all those motion graphics and 3D elements is awesome to have. Will the IKEA inspired shift design get an update?

I think I used to watch this young man on his own channel a while ago, but I might be mistaking him for someone else.

Fantastic renders and assembly description NSF team. What a team! I look forward to the next video, describing the stiffener's and stringers and how they keep the Starship System rockets from folding, buckling and collapsing. (Apart from the hot gas pressurisation that is) Great presentation Ryan, very professional. Thank you all so much.
