well,
in bricklug chat room we got to talkin
about brainstorming a standard airlock size
for MOCs, and then came up w/ the idea that
rather than impose a std, we could just make
little modules that would join 'your' MOCs
airlock to a standard, i.e.

I've been following this thread a bit and am wondering which modules need to
have "standards"? So far, the airlock/docking ring seems to be the only

Some standards (they have never been written until this point) that I use
when building large ships are:

Beds
-Spartan  2 x 5
-Standard 3 x 6
-Luxury   6 x 6

Hallways & Corridors
- 4 studs wide minimum, 5 bricks high minimum

Stairs
-Standard 2 plates riser-to-riser
-Steep    3 plates (1 brick) riser-to-riser

These are some of the rule that I try to adhere to. Does anyone else have
their own rules? It might be a good starting point to use simple things and
work our way up to the airlock...
