Look at my colorful and chaotic factory

This was inspired by V453000 and his principles of the factory presented here: https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-187 and here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpgoIJ9pp44

my goal was to build a similar factory based on similar principles. I did not put as much effort into the train system, but I really loved to snake the belts across my whole base. Close to no assemblers and raffineries in the main factory got replaced (I think only gears, green, red chips and accus).

I have over a hundred active trains.

I'm not finished yet, but i think it might be a good time to show it off.

Hope you like it, it was a lot of work!

Hahaha I love it!
Ultimate chaos at the 'core' there. There is barely any structure discernable.

I always build so orderly... its almost boring

Any numbers on rockets/min or spm?

Your factory is built big like it handles high volumes, yet you are using miniature cuck-trains?

Oh this is quite normal. I'm not sure what the idea behind it is but I know it's not uncommon, even for mega bases.
