There is little cannon on Respite island and we have no knowledge of if any more SPDD are in the pipeline, not even dimensions are given. So this is my wild assed guess. It makes sence to have everything you need to make what is needed as the supply lines get longer. That BIG lathe in the heavy shop would have no trouble machining a 8" naval rifle, crusier gun and the well will hold a crusier if they decide to build one ;)  The lathe will also machine crank shafts for the tripple expansion engine.  With the rolling mill just heat the steel ingots and roll your own any thing from plates to railroad rail.  foundry has iron melting furnace can cast cylinders of a tripple expansion engine, cannon balls, firing pans what ever s need to smaller furnaces for parss and bronze in crusibles.  I see the ships as a one ship industrial revolution  That plate factory can build a refinery storage tanks etc  PS there is oil in equidor where Guyacal is in the east ;)

Did you see the newist continuty error width of Grik BBs first given as 80' later books give 100'. Even the larger gives a 1 ot 8 which is tippy for a vessel but, much better than a 1 to ten. She should give a lively ride, I  wonder if Grik get sea sick?
