Littered with buckets, baggies and loose parts, of course.  Just an
in-progress teaser.  Slowly but surely, and all that.

Man, making these buildings all connect and conform to the moonbase • standard
is a real pain and is very time consuming.  No less than 10 hours straight

Hey, I know what you mean about the conforming to the standard being
difficult.  I started with a skeleton - the bare minimum amount of bricks
and plates required to make the thing conform, and then I started building
around that.  The hardest part for me is the sheer magnitude.  I've never
made anything of my own the required more than 400 pieces.  My base is going
to have over a thousand easily.  Problem is, I don't even have the pieces,
and certainly not the experience to build that big.  Oh well, rise to the
challenge!

Okay, I just got back from your page and now I see that my problems are
nothing... No wonder you're having so much trouble - that thing is going to
be huge!  Are you going for 9 base plates there?
