Can you instead make the interior of your model accessible by including some
hinges to allow it to be opened?

Build On!

I've got a design implementation problem. When I complete the outer • portion of
my current project I will not be able to reach the center of the interior • to
complete the interior details, and if I build the interior first I'm • afraid -
okay, I'm clumsy, so I'm certain - I'll damage the interior while building • the
exterior and not be able to reach in for repairs. So I'd like to build a
platform of some sort that would allow me to lie on my belly over my • project
and reach inside. It would have to be on an incline with the head end • below the
level of the outer walls of the project because my arms aren't long enough • to
reach from the top.

Has anyone had to do this or something similar? I'm looking for ideas on • how to
build such a thing. It needs to be adjustable from 0 to about 36 inches • above
the project base, which will be about 30 inches off the floor on a large • table
on wheels that I have yet to build. It needs to support ... umm ... ehem • ...
about 140 pounds. I'm pretty handy with carpentry but have no large power
tools.

No, it doesn't have to be made of LEGO :-)
