Looking to do some very broad discussion about Elf technology, most specifically about Noldor at the height of their powers.
The discussion about 2h in to session 4.12 put it in my mind, with Cory talking about surveyors and showing Gondolin in-construction but saving the reveal for S5.
What does "in construction" look like? They can't possibly have cranes (can they?), but what about rigging with pulleys and rope? How about scaffolding? Do they build a tower from the ground up by piling rocks on top of other rocks, or from the center out like a modern downtown office building?
I try not to think too much about this, both because I don't really like any of the possible answers and because it's a bit too on the nose coming from me.
