[TAKING ORDERS] McLagsalot Heavy Lifters: building lift vehicles for your ship

I like to build super heavy-lifters. Do you have a 300 ton extended-range Evotian double-lander? Let me put it into LKO for you!

I like a challenge, so if you have a very heavy payload you need a launcher for, please post your craft file, and I'll attempt to build a launcher custom made to get it into a 100 km circular orbit around kerbin with not one drop of extra fuel.

I'll post the complete craft if/when I finish it.

Stock 0.17 only.

Whiners with slow computers need not apply.

Challenge accepted good sir! See what you can do with this amazing piece of dead weight! I have high expectations from someone with both Mio and Kagami in their profile!

May I present, Project X! (click to download)

Thank you! I can't wait to look at it after work and have a go at firing this pile of junk up into SPACE

I don't think I can get this whole thing in orbit, but

I think you meant to only upload the upper interplanetary stage. So now I'm building

However, though I have plenty of TWR, I cant seem to keep these outer tanks/engines from falling off

I have a request to make I am making an Inter-Planetary Craft and would like to know if you could make a lifter that would get it to an orbit around 12,000,000m. I know you want to lift something heavy but I thought this would be enough of a challenge for you. Also how do I attach .craft files to posts? Also if at all possible could you make the lifter reusable. And for my craft to work right you will need Mechanical Mouse Industries Kethane pack and the Satellite pack. Witch is here: http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/13692-Mechanical-Mouse-Industries-Kethane-Payload-Packs-Released%21%21%21

If you accept my challenge then PM me here on the form so I can give you a link to my Google drive.

Ah,yeah, I guess I uploaded it with my own attempt at a lifter as well instead of just the upper stage. The lower stage I made was the only way I could keep those upper tanks stable enough for flight, so maybe you can take that idea and add to it! It seems pretty stable, but there just isn't enough fuel it seems with my initial design.

EDIT:

Here's a slightly less heavy version of the orbiter/explorer stage. If you can't figure out anything with the first one, give this one a try!
