Well than!

Looks like TrueBend section on the left, no sign of automation. So CT is getting handmade panels like Bentley or Aston Martin.

Think so, huh?

The Trumpf system platform is built to be automated. There’s some really awesome videos on and online! But basically there’s a rotating head that will put in for the different angles to be bent and then a robotic arm removes the finished piece.

Right.

The truck was literally designed from day 1 to be easy to manufacture and automate.

Saw on Twitter when I woke up today...

Woot! The special sauce is done and now we get to see them doing things.

I bet we get more peeks as the South wall comes down.

Well than then!

LOL. Well played, sir. I'm sure your goof was just a goof. Some people don't grasp that "then" is time-based as in "There was lightning then thunder." where "than" is comparative as in "I like lightning more than thunder."
My Dad corrected my grammar quite often. It's a curse I've passed on to my girls. Now that they are mostly grown (only one 13 year old at home, 3 are on their own), I've turned my curse to the interwebs... Well, I curtail it a lot... Like, a lot. LOL ... FML...

I'm so glad Joe doesn't live in my neighborhood. Constantly closing the curtains to make sure he's not sharing dirty pics of me or the wife on the internet.

So there is space for two more.

This is the casting section, they don't form the body panels here.

That section is a bit further down to the west north of Giga Press, according to these from Joe:

I don't believe this is where the body bending machines go. These are stamping presses. Door jams, anything aluminum on the truck... This is where it's made.

The BIW area is where I understand the TRUMPF machines to be located. There are not really window views on that. They have black canvas material spread across a chainlink fence blocking the view there.
