Lots of vehicles are being shipped out today on the west side. Car Carrier were leaving often. At the south extension work going on with the HVAC system for the future data banks that will be in operation.

As an early Tesla investor and a Cyber Truck owner I really enjoy the progress. Thank you.

if it is LOX then high prob that the High Nickel NMC process is being commissioned. To be on the safe side I also googled the LFP cathode manufacturing process and then I found that the LFP sintering process uses N2. We need a close up for the stickers on the delivery vehicles.. An interesting find during the LFP research: The sintering is carried out using saggers (ceramic crucibles) into which the material is pressed before the filled saggers move through the kiln. I recall that a kind of stamping press was installed via a large side opening, already a long time ago. Maybe the filing of saggers using a press is standard practice also for NMC material.

[@DessieDoolan]

@@hardernl8893 17:40. We know at least 6 of those 7 tanks are LOX. Will be interesting to see if the vaporizers can be seen operational. Same tanker company delivered a month ago (Joe's 14 June), but the vaporizers were never obviously operational. The presses were by Sacmi. Curiously Sacmi specialize in presses for the ceramic industry. Would the crucibles be a consumable item? Single use perhaps. Both making the crucibles, and packing in the material.

re 4:48 We have seen walkways along the W and NW side with minimal concrete - only for pedestrians/cyclists after all. This slab under construction is industrial grade, looks suitable for the heaviest transports. Only for fire escape? I realize this is a tired, old discussion item but it struck me as hugely overdesigned.

[@DavidJohnson-tv2nn]

@@hardernl8893 You have a good point. I thought these may be fire escape passages that may also be used for occasional deliveries of equipment. But @ 4:48 There is not much room for an access road or for trucks to back in. But maybe a truck with a delivery could pull up and a forklift can go back and forth down the passage, unloading the truck?

[@DessieDoolan]

@@hardernl8893 4:48. My speculation is that there will be a road around the Southend the location of which will cross over the Fire Escape Passages. Therefore the roofs of the passages need to be trafficable, and structure below (walls, floor, footings) to carry that load. Others have suggested the roofed passages would be to project from falling glass. That might be a side benefit. Not something I've seen around buildings with glazed facades before. From interior views 6 weeks ago it also seems there is no elevator, only stairs. That rules out it being used for deliveries.

[@jbbuzzable]

Just an observation. Giga Texas runs most all of their utilities underground, where as in Shanghai mostly is above.

[@BALANCEDPORTFOLIO]

Shanghai factory is built on a marsh, the "underground" is water!

[@synftw_]

This song really reminded me of Dogs from Pink Floyd's Animals album. Great flight, as always!

[@rtz549]

I think all those AC units are for the main factory. It doesn't have permanent AC yet.

Thanks!

[@BTSflyer]

Thank you very much for your support of his channel.

[@bigtvjunky9119]

Bravo, but can I suggest that anyone who wants to support Brad to not use KZbin and instead use his donation link as Paypal takes a much smaller percentage of the donation.

[@BTSflyer]

@@bigtvjunky9119 Interesting I didn't know that.

[@bigtvjunky9119]

@@BTSflyer I spend too much time on Twitch. As long as the paypal dono is more than $1(might be more now as the fee went up) it's a better deal. They charge a fixed transaction fee (looks like it's now $0.49) plus 3.5% of the donation. I believe KZbin takes 30% of the Super Thanks.

[@BTSflyer]

Also the way KZbin pays us by each 1000 views is hard to understand. They could be ripping off the creators and we wouldn't notice.

Thanks Brad

[@DavidJohnson-tv2nn]

Thanks Brad! Rooftop cable trays: @ 2:25 (Looking south along the building wall) Cable spool work platform has been removed. @ 16:02 (North end, casting) Installing more cable trays towards the north end of the building. Cooling: @ 3:45 That is a lot of conduit in the duct-bank going out to the cooling tower. @ 3:56 A view of the cooling pipes. South expansion: @ 4:47 Placing forms for the floor of one of the fire escape passages. New power supply to the building: @ 17:18 Duct-bank intersection/Site of a new structure.... Backfilled over existing north/south duct-banks. 48 conduit risers from the vaults on the new duct-banks sticking up out of the ground. 12 conduits for each vault. Whether or not they cut into the existing duct-banks at some point as Dessie speculated... There will be a new building, or buildings built or placed here. The next few days and weeks will be interesting.

[@bigtvjunky9119]

Are we seeing the first results of the new 12 hour/4 day production schedule?

[@BTSflyer]

Today was the busiest for shipping out vehicles I have seen yet.

[@tiborpalatka]

@@BTSflyer totally agree, reminded me of WuWa's Giga Shanghai at peak

[@kex5000]

Finally spotted myself 😂 . I seen your drone fly right over me but it was too late when I waved at you lol at 14:25

[@BTSflyer]

I looked at my footage and didn't see anyone but, I did not know exactly where you were

[@stephenj6837]

If you were there what do you do there?

[@danawoodbury7106]

@@BTSflyer perhaps off to the right lower corner , near storage containers/fork lift...not sure....

[@BTSflyer]

I did spot two men next to a box and fork lift, the one on the left was using a hammer on the box. The other had his back to the drone.

[@kex5000]

@BTSgigafactory I was the one with his back to the drone. Once I noticed the drone, I waved at it, but it was too late, lol

[@rtz549]

Is all that excess steel for the Twitter HQ?

[@DessieDoolan]

Excess steel. For additional build-out within the existing structure. Note the lack of columns. Factory A/C. Plant for the factory is the 3 below roof installations at BIW.

[@BALANCEDPORTFOLIO]

According to Joe Tegtmeyer the X HQ will be in Bastrop next to the Boring Company/Starlink site

I know you can’t please everyone but I prefer a dialogue

[@BTSflyer]

If you need everything explained in a video Joe is your man. These are not news reports, documentaries, etc... I just do visual updates set to music and leave it up to the viewer to research what interested them.

[@stephenj6837]

Brad don’t you love all these idiots that cry about needing a narrative but aren’t smart enough to search Tesla Texas and find Joe!!!!! Thanks for all you do Brad!

Music is much better; I hate techno.

I chose slow pace music for this video. Most of the copyright free music sucks but that is what we have to work with.
