First Cybertruck Front Castings Spotted at Giga Texas!

[Sirfun]

"Video by Geff Robbert's and noticed something on the South West platform."

304 SS ?

Seems all too coincidental

That looks like standard galvanized sheet metal ductwork. They wrap it in plastic to keep the inside clean. Those numbers probably represent the numbers for those duct fittings on the drawings. They look like they're all the same size. So on the drawing there can be many fittings that are the same size, with the same number. With the large numbers you don't have to walk around measuring the size of each piece of duct (also called a fitting). You just grab as many as you need of that number, for the line of duct you are building.

Oh hush! I'm going to bed with the firm belief that those are pallets of Stainless Steel 304 ingots that are melted down for use in the 9kT gigapress that forms an entire CyberTruck, including motors and seats, in a single shot.

G'nite!

Maybe the best comparison shot. Or maybe only shot of the confirmed front casting

well it taint the MY … it’s def the CT front casting

Back in my day we‘d go months without a sighting. @CyberGus went on a hunger strike. He said he wouldn’t eat until the next Cybertruck sighting. He’d have starved to death if we hadn’t been able to trick him with a cardboard Mock-up on a trailer.

Back them, people were limited to filming the truck on those Sony cameras that recorded to floppy disks. Then the images had to be printed out and faxed to the server. We’d have killed for a potato cam shot back then,

Why are they on pallets the same color? Very odd looking. And what's the scale? I would expect more structure for the front casting to create a firewall for the cooling to mount to.

Tesla even gigacasts the pallets

Soooo futuristic

Ahaaa! The secrets reveal themselves...

IT'S ALIVE.

Maybe they have to put the hot casting on metal pallets for cooling. But these definitely look like they are test castings. I bet we will see real beta prototypes by next month. Woo!

 

[Mini2nut]

More proof that the CT puzzle is finally coming together. Bring on the Cybertruck!!!

I prefer that Joe is being cautious and, despite my hopes, encourage others to do the same.

what’s the punishment for being wrong?

in any event, seems pretty easy to back into this one: that is difinitively not a Model Y casting, so unless there a third vehicle being produced at Giga-Austin…

Meanwhile I’ve spent enough time staring at that known CT front casting from Q1 report to recognize it here
