Added a second set of mounting fixtures to each tank, and some other stuff while fighting a corrupt block that didn't want to be purged and kept crashing the DWG.

Started work on the bow section, and added pods at the ends of the spokes. These pods are the ships gravity system, and the star drive. They contain paired spinning singularities or some-such.
Added more things to the bow section. I have decided the barrel behind the bow section is a modified O'Neill cylinder, so the ship is now much bigger. (about 3,000 meters bigger) Oh, and the cutout at the top of the bow section is for the hangar decks.

Sometimes, they just don't work out.
It will be interesting to see what you make out of that scribble.

In a forward direction, of course.
I would say the pointy end is the front, but both ends seem to be somewhat pointy. The ball is the drive unit.

Thank you. You should have seen the first attempt. Man it sucked. I almost gave up on it.
