Floating Platform Detail

 

This is going to be a quick update and mostly pictures of what is happening on the floating platform.  My intention is to add one more landing pad and this T-Interconnect.  I spent some time working on the control building that will sit on the T-Interconnect.  

First off it is easily removable as this shows.  There are only four studs on each side that connect the building to the plate.  The raised area in the back and just behind the stairs will self center the building when attaching.  The main reason for this is transportation.  It is much easier to move the plates on their sides.  Thus the building must detach.

And now for some pictures.

This is a picture of one side with the surface texture applied.


These two are the other side.  You will notice that the bule power tank is half empty, as indicated by the clear section.

This is the back.  the entire landing area was cut out of the rock, only this section still shows the rock surface.

Here the Maintenance Team is working on connection the flood light.

And these two are installing one of the large screens.

The engine test stand from the last post, in the setup position.

The engine test stand deployed for testing.

A scout ship coming in for landing.

A long view.

A final view.  There is still the entire inside to detail out.  This is still days away from being done.
