I figured there was a logical explanation. That makes sense and is very clever. The only thing i would worry about now is that after a few trips around the mechanol the ground would start to erode and create an unstable path that would cave in as one of the other great machines followed. I'm over analyzing. Perhaps one of the other sentient beings fixes the problem. I can't wait to see the other colossal sentient clockworkery. Your talent is truly inspiring.
