The technic holes will be used to attach the sections together.  Simply put,
each module needs to have at least two doors, located in any of the 8 spots
designated. It looks like 7 bricks wall height works best ...

I hate to be persnickity, but if we moved each door 1 stud closer to the
outside corner it's nearest to, we could have multiples of 16x16
baseplates-- which may lend itself to further coolness seeing as it'd allow
for 16x16, 16x32, and 48x48 baseplates to be used (if anyone wants to go
that far)

Also-- I've only got 1 lousy 32x32 baseplate in grey that has a solid "field
of studs". But I've got slews of grey plates & the like. And some green
32x32's of course. But those won't mix in well with the base. Might we
decide to have the doors elevated by 1 plate? That way I could build a floor
that was 2-plates thick and build on that, and people who wanted to build on
baseplates could just raise the walls up by 1 plate level?

I'd throw out a DAT & image, but at the moment Suave's kinda... inaccessible
due to some minor stupidity (oops!). Anyway, some ideas...

(...) My turn to be persnickity... I didn't see any rule that a module had to be grey... What if I want to be fashionable and decorate mine in Teal and aqua-marine? I think that would be swell... All kidding aside I don't think we should feel locked (...) (22 years ago, 18-May-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
