Greetings all,

I finally finished the project I have been working on for three long months.
It is a Star League era Mech Repair Facility from the Battletech Universe.
My concept was to make a structure that had interchangeable repair gantries so
that it could be used for Mechs of different shapes and sizes.
This is the outer structure.

This is the Largest of the four gantries which takes up the entire inside of
outer structure when installed

These are the other three gantries

#3 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2200240

#4 http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2200253

These three can fit inside the unit simultaneously.

Physical Dimensions:  Width (at widest point) 18  inches
                      Dept   (widest point)   15.5 inches
                      Height 41 bricks   or   15.25 inches

Other features: Overhead crane built into roof.

Overall build time including sorting:  60 hrs?

I have plans to make a defensive wall and free-standing weapons turrets in the
future.


Questions and comments welcome!

Wow, that's quite a facility!  Lest you think you're being ignored, I wanted to
post a quick reply with the intent of following up a little later (I'm about to
leave work for the day).

More to come...

Dave!
