Well, the Moonbase Project has certainly piqued my interest, and has me
building space for the first time in years.  In fact, I was so motivated
that I dragged my first module over to Matt Gerber's place today to show it
to him, and he was kind enough to take some great photos of it.  I have
therefore created a Brickshelf directory and have put some photos of this
rather utilitarian module up at:

Some info:

This module is simply a corridor connection creation designed to rid myself
of shuttle plates.  It also has an elevator/airlock and an air generation
unit above the main level.

It was designed to fit on a standard baseplate, yet be compatible with the
64x64 Moonbase standard (I only have two 64^2s and I already have plans for
them, which meant I had to cheat a bit on this first module...)

The elevator was originally raised and lowered via micromotor, but it just
didn't seem right for some reason.  I redesigned it to work off of good old
muscle power, by turning one of the greebles on top (Matt pointed out that
the play value is higher with the hand-powered elevator; that's probably why
I like it better).

Finally, a deep link:

Any and all comments are appreciated.
