Star Wars Construction...

I have been in the construction trades for a long time. I am an electrician and a controls technician. No to my point. I have been on many job sites. Materials have to be constructed and put together or prefabricated somewhere else and then brought to the job site. Materials are heavy and sometimes must be brought in from long distances. Steel beams are very heavy and cumbersome to move and require big cranes. Now, how in the Star Wars Galaxy does all this get acccompolished?

They say it took 20 years to build the 1st Death Star. I know that they had cloning technology for their work force, but where did they get all the metal and natural resources for the station? I know that weight is not an issue in space, but you still have to get the material their and that would expend resources and time to do that and with it being built so far in deep space, the materials would have to travel a long distance to get there. I know that is not problem with Hyper Space, but you still have to expend fuel to get there. Did they have processing facilities on a planet close by the construction site or did the materials came from Courscant? Can the manipulate matter and create something out of nothing?

It took less than 3 years to get the next Death Star under construction and to be built bigger than the first one. They got smart and built it with protection from the Moon of Endor. perhaps they got raw materials from the moon. Who can answere this for me?

Work Thoughts

I am 36 years old and i have been in an industrial/commercial environment for many years. I have worked on all sorts of projects from Chemical Plants to Paper Mills to Semiconductor Fabs and never in all my life have i seen a place not work well after some two years. I have been a tech for nearly a year and this system has only ran well over the Christmas Holidays when the engineers were not there.

I have built units and did install work on complex systems that have started up and ran with a minimal number of errors; systems that ran perfectly after the "bugs" were corrected. I have never seen a system like the one i work on that just runs like hell all the time, no matter what is done or not done to it. I just do not understand it...
