I leave mine loose.  Basically because the modules won't fit through the
doorways in my place.  I have to take everything off inorder to move
them anyway.

I sure this was brought up in the past, but it is a shame the size of the
smaller modular unit was not 30 1/4 by about 20 1/8 ( 3 plates by 2 plates ).
This would have made construction a lot more practical as most sheets of wood
would be 2'x4', 4'x4', or 4'x8'.  With the dimensions an even square, I either
had to buy a large sheet or cut 2 smaller ones.  ( I did the latter )  It was
also hard to get a small sheet of 3/8 plywood.

Agreed, but there are so many people with modules already that it would
be unreality to try and change the design.  One think you can do is make
a few half modules out of the left overs.  Half modules have lots of
uses.  And they fit through doorways.
