A hundred MOCs in one. I like that saying. It does split in to three sections.
Each of the three base plates carries a section, they can be re-combined in to
form new patterns. As many service gantry center sections can added as desired.

You know I kept making the number 40 on the other side like three times.
Is that dumb or what? Who knew upside down and backwards could be so confusing.
Next time I recommend the following:

Building Schleim? Build the left side, behind you, to the right.
Build the right side upside down and to your left, while looking in a mirror.
What's so hard about that? Don't knock it till you Schleim'd it.
