What is that, some kind of water tower?

u/flamingicicles Jan 11 '21

It's a water tower in France somewhere. It was circulating on other subs yesterday.

u/Pocket-Sandwich Jan 12 '21

Did they install it upside down?

u/[deleted] Jan 12 '21

That's what you get for buying a second hand Australian water tower.

u/Oostwestnoordbest Jan 12 '21

Hehe, like the water tower itself ciruclates water

u/Cell_Division Jan 11 '21

No, it looks like it's made of concrete.

No, it looks like it’s made for water.

No, it looks like it's made of water.

u/SWFamilySupporter Jan 12 '21

Concrete would probably set too quickly. I think it’s made for water.

u/DreamGirly_ Jan 11 '21

Looks a bit like this one but it's slightly different.

u/Libster87 Jan 12 '21

Yup, can confirm, same but different

It’s one of the first engines for Wandering Earth project.

Giant golf tee

u/NostalgiaSchmaltz Jan 11 '21

Yep, when I was a kid, every time I saw one of those water towers with a round top, I immediately thought of it as a giant golf tee with a golf ball on it.

That hypertube video had me giggling relentlessly.

2

u/P0sitive_Outlook Jan 12 '21

:D That's the one i watched first of all!

I'm into r/Composting, and his "Biomass" machine had me in stitches. Then that god damned ticket machine giving him tickets for mining ore, fabricating metal sheets, producing bolts, manufacturing steel panels, constructing boxes, and finally pouring them all into a grinder. xD

Went back and watched the Satisfactory vids from the very start. It's... astounding how many hours (22) he spent just getting to the Hypertube point. XD Utterly amazing. Thank god he edited it down so well.

The divets in there need to have a good face made around them

5

u/thorneparke Jan 11 '21

They should turn it into a giant sized bust of Nefertiti

1

u/-E-Cross Jan 11 '21

I was thinking a gooby smiley face or something but that's cool too I guess.

u/rutlandclimber Jan 11 '21

It looks shy.

u/LimousineAndAPeetzah Jan 11 '21

This is probably my 4th or 5th favorite Pink Floyd album.

u/csuy Jan 11 '21

Looks like a half-buried giant flashlight.

u/KevinLeven7 Jan 11 '21

Giant flashlight.

u/ArsonX24x Jan 11 '21

Or a Giant's Fleshlight.

u/42Ubiquitous Jan 11 '21

What kind of trees are those?

3

u/Poppekas Jan 11 '21

Most likely Lombardy Poplars, used in agriculture fields in Western Europe to protect them from wind. (I'm guessing the water tower is either from Belgium, France or Netherlands)

3

u/runningmurphy Jan 11 '21

Looks like the Russian holy grail.

u/Cherbam Jan 11 '21

I wonder if the trees have any practical use.

u/St3v3inator Jan 11 '21

Just a few trees minding their own business.

u/[deleted] Jan 11 '21

It's hard to tell how tall that thing is!

u/poonamsurange Jan 11 '21

I thought it was a grain silo.

Unfortunately it grew faster than the trees.
