minus-square@bulwark@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish4•1 month agoI see they painted some high viz caution stripes on the counterweights in the color photos. I thought they looked kinda dangerous for the people on the ground.
minus-square@BearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilink4•1 month agoI imagine they move very slowly, and make a lot of noise. People probably weren’t expected to be in that space most of the time, too (I suppose). That projecting part must be mechanism - counterweight wouldn’t need to stick out so much, just by using the appropriate weight.
