Hi Everyone,

A great way to spice up your moonbase is to create “end caps” for the tunnels. In the past, we’ve created simpler ones that simply serve to cover, but at Brickfest 03, Aaron Sneary created a few more detailed end caps that served a variety of purposes.

This weekend at NWBrickCon 2004, Ryan Wood created a Jade Empire endcap, seen in the center of this photo. (unfortunately the best photo I have at the moment.)

I created a Starbucks endcap. For those on-the-go moonbase denizens who need a quick boost.

End caps can add some interesting details to your moonbase and don’t require a ton of parts.

Grand Admiral,
Thanks for the plug, and it was great to see you and your creations at NWBricksCon. The Starbucks Endcap definitely wins the Most Necessary Endcap Award.

Let’s all try to bring more of these to future moonbase layouts as they provide fun, interesting solutions to dead-ends. I would love to see a Best Moonbase Endcap Award at the next big event.

Here’s the originals for further inspiration:

Thanks again GA. Keep building
