Sure is. I have a question though. Would everyone like to see something that
large: 1. with four complete sides with minimal access to the interior or
2. with 1 open side (faceing the back of the layout) so all of the interior can
clearly be seen. Keep in mind I figure the main 'base' will likely be 3 or 4
modules and about a meter (3 to 4 feet) high, with a landing platform in front
(offset to the side slightly) about 4-6 modules and half a meter (1.5 to 2
feet) high. The real trick will be making it transportable. But anyway what
does everyone think, Open back or not?

Nice.
