I see no reason why not. The flyaway might be larger if the torchship uses a fusion engine with a large capacitor bank
Zalcoti
Could the fly away engine work with torchships? I didn't see those types mentioned so wondering if it would be feasible.
Nyrath
Nice catch! I'll have to add that

The Agricultural Station quote about bamboo kind of shows that the author didn't do their homework. Found a page that states that the preferred variety of bamboo is Moso Bamboo, also known as Chinese Bamboo. It takes about 4-5 years to properly mature before you can process it into manufactured lumber. The canes are about 20 meters long and 10 cm in diameter. Then there is this whole process of turning them into two types of boards: laminated and strand woven plywood. https://www.bambooimport.com/en/how-is-bamboo-lumber-made
