I too have been having reservations as to where the project was leading. It seemed to me that Gordon's inspirational theory was getting lost. K.I.S.S.! Stone rowing is such an empirical method of great simplicity that if we can practice it with the 10 tonner in relative secrecy, then show the World what can be done with a 40 tonner the problems of erection can come later.

I can remember moving large stones when constructing garden rockeries using exactly Gordon's method using a scaffold pole and a brick for the fulcrum. Never occured to me to scale the whole thing up! Doh!
