Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere. What is the most beakers that can be produced by one city? In a one city challenge I am doing my city got to 1320. Has anyone done better?
Most beakers produced by one city?

Check out the thread I started called "making your own map." About halfway down the first page Tim the enchanter put a screenshot of a occ city with 3700+ sheild per turn. I'm not quite sure how he did it... I replicated his map exactly, and got up to 1500 on the first try, and 2800 the next. Still, it is better than I have ever done before!

Funny you should ask this now, as I just looked into this in the making my own map thread.
The most I've gotten in the normal course of play from a random map is just under 2200 beakers. This was during the brief period between building a research lab and the discovery of flight to kill the colossus.
However, Using a custom designed layout that would never occur in a random map I was able to get a city up to 3672 beakers. The limiting factor there was that the AI trading partner city did not grow to it's full potential. Using the Cheat mode, I added a few citizens to the AI city and got it up to 3720 beakers. I'm pretty sure this is the max beakers you could possibly get.
Edit: looks like rponton beat me to it...

Thanks for that guys - 2200 beakers! Clearly I still have plenty to learn - although I too had that brief period between the research lab and the discovery of flight.
If I may ask Tim. What was the basic trade for your 2200 beaker city and the income from the three trade routes?
Cheers

My trade routes were +45 arrows each and the city had 248 total arrows, so I guess that makes 113 base trade after superhighways. It only had one trade special (silk) but the key was that it had 12 river squares. (With superhighways, rivers produce 6 arrows instead of 4). It also had a couple food specials to handle an extra einstein or two.
