Oooh, the standard-airlock discussion comes up at the same time
as someone raises "Space World"! Good stuff to discuss, I think.
Did we ever come to any consensus about standard docking rings?
I'm using a "standard" ring for HMS Experiment that uses simple
train doors (!!) and a necessary footprint of 6 bricks' height
(for the passage itself), though it's 8 with all the external
fairings. I use 4 Technic pegs to connect each section, and I
also use the system for connecting all of the ship's modules, thus
making the ship absolutely *full* of airlocks in case of failure
in any one module (even the nexus). I'll try to get a picture
of the dedicated airlock/equipment module tonight--maybe also
the EVA-bug module, which is also in part an airlock (but has
neither engines, wings, nor guns ;) ).

| Hi, I'm new here and this is my first post, but I was wondering if anybody has made a workable, minifig scale airlock/docking ring that is 7 or less bricks high? I'm looking for ideas i might be able to use on a new ship I'm building. Thanks, Marcus (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.space)
