+\section{introduction}
+the design and dimensions of the molten salt reactor experiment is detailed in several ornl reports. this document aims at providing a comprehensive overview of the core design dimensions and materials, for the purpose of creating an accurate cad model of the reactor.
+care is taken to give proper references to where data comes from or how its extrapolated from the available information.
+
+\section{core design}
+the msre core design can be seen in figure 1 and figure 2, note that they differ slight, e.g. the vessel drain line and around the control rod.

+\subsection{control rod and sample assembly}
+the control rod and sample assembly is further detailed in figure 3.

+\section{graphite rods}
+the graphite moderator rod dimension, given in figure 4, are missing the angle of the spike, the dimensions of the pole, and disk at the bottom.
