Thanks, Trevor!
The airlock isn't pretty when you look at it from the 'inside' - so I don't
have any pictures without the plate on top of it. I think, thought, that
most of the details can be picked out from the 6 pics I do have. :)
Tim's destroyer was a good source of inspiration, though I will readily
admit that he thought out what the piping in his MOC did much more than I
did. I just kinda threw bits and goodies in there till it looked good to me.
:) Each area's doodad's have a locational relevant (Med lab, etc) but as for
what each bit does, I didn't bother going that far. Maybe when I get more
experience.

Hehe.. yeah... it's called "lack of bricks" I still have all of my other
MOC's built and I have no gray left really, and the red was from 3 bulk tubs
- all of which were tapped out making this one. But, yeah..there's
sufficient shielding. Or so I've been told..... er.... *looks worried* :)

Thanks again. If there was something I'd change about my airlock, it would
be to extend the outside lock so that it stands out from the hull by 2 or 3
more studs to make docking more practical. :)
