Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3493279, member: 27"] Morning update: First, the cuse.com web site is down and has been down for at least an hour. Not good. If you are jonesing for a look at the live cam, you can still get at it from the Hayner Hoyt web site. [MEDIA=youtube]IFMK_Phao9E[/MEDIA] Crane 5c has been busy loading materials up to the SW corner needed to get layer 2 finished there. The NW part of the hard shell is done. The NE part is done. Work has started on the SE part (layer 2) and it even has some layer 2 up now. Layer 2 started on the SW corner but nothing has been done there, other than finishing up layer 1, in a couple of weeks. They do have the most of the materials they need to put up layer 2 now and I would guess they will start on it soon. It looks like it will be the last to finish. The bad cranes in slot 5 are to blame. The weather today is supposed to be bad. Heavy winds all day and a lot of rain is possible this afternoon. After today, things look good for a long time. I don't see layer 2 getting finished by Friday but maybe by the weekend. One thing I will mention about the parts of the roof that have layer 2 in place is that all of them appear to have flaps of excess material on the edges of the sections. You can see them moving around when it is breezy (like it will be today). There is surely going to be a cleanup on this at some point. It might be happening right now on the panels that have layer 2 installed in the SW corner, where there are a few workers walking around doing something. Why did they leave that excess material in place to begin with? Are they going to do something to make the panels of the hard shell clearly defined with black outlines, as shown on the Geiger drawing? We should find out soon. It looks like that light green material has been placed around the border of all 4 sides of the PTFE part of the roof. There are a bunch of workers that appear to be working with it on the north side of the roof, near where the NE and NW sections meet. Maybe something will happen with the PTFE section today. I believe the crew putting in the roof had a deadline of the end of this week to complete the roof. If they don't start on the PTFE soon, I can't see them meeting that deadline. Still haven't seen any signs of the 8 big wooden boxes that have been sitting in the Hendricks Field storage area for months. Do they hold PTFE material? If you see some big wooden boxes appear next to a crane soon, it is a good sign the PTFE fabric material installation is about to begin. [/QUOTE]
