zero gravity manufacturing

Bettie,
Baseline L5 Construction Station/Gerald W. Driggers, Southern Research
Institute, pg. 33 from the 1977 conference is referenced in Space
Settlements, A Design Study NASA 1977. Is this one available?

>> At least two of these 1979 & 1983 probably have nothing to do with
>> manufacturing in zero gravity. That leaves THREE possible papers
in an

>>
>> It seems that we may need to look at how all manufacturing can
be done
>> on the moon since there seems to be little on what to do with lunar
>> resources once they are in zero gravity.
