This is a compact Rassor Drum engineered to excavate regolith with ease. Its dimensions measure 15.11 inches by 11.23 inches, or 383.794 millimeters by 285.242 millimeters. Weighing in at 4.98 kilograms, it's designed to possess sufficient weight for digging while remaining lightweight enough for space travel. If my calculations are accurate, this Rassor Drum should be able to hold approximately 51 liters of material. The cylinders feature three carbon fiber supports, each with a width of 0.6 inches and a thickness of 0.1875 inches, except for the central cylinder which boasts six support beams – three on either side, evenly offset. On the model, all silver components are aluminum, while the grayish pattern consists entirely of carbon fiber. The total width of the scoops is 80.01 inches, and the total mass remains at 4.98 kilograms with the specified materials in SolidWorks. The diameter measures 15.11 inches or 383.794 millimeters, and the length comes out to be 11.23 inches or 285.242 millimeters. If all calculations are correct, this Rassor Drum should have a capacity of approximately 113.16 liters.
