Thanks Ross.

I'd just have one comment - it mightn't be as easy as you think to get a
seal at the top - unless LEGO have made 4x4 tiles with round corner. There's
no tile that would match exactly to the edge of the cylinder. However you
may be able to seal it with another arch at the top of the doorway (on the
inside).

No, you wouldn't be able to seal it flush with the door.  I just meant to
put some additional tiles on top (maybe like a 6x6 area, turtable included).
Just to add a bit more to it.

Personally, I dont think it's necessary - mybe just a few tiles to *almost*
seal it would look fine.

Yep.

(...) You might be able to do it by topping the cylinder with an 8x8 round plate (which is mostly tile anyway, except for the four studs in the centre), and recessing the 2x2 turntable into a layer of plates above. Cheers Richie Dulin (22 years ago, 1-Jul-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
