Yet another project

[Stefan-A]

Getting more complicated than necessary. This is supposed to be designed according to the KISS principle.

If I go for swinging doors, and I might for at least one of the modules, they're going to have to swing to the sides.

But if I make them all 55cm high, I can fit them in the back seat of my car. Always a plus.

110*55*50 seems to be the most practical compromise at the moment. Takes as much floor space as the one that already houses my garters and I wouldn't need a van to move them.

I wonder, what would a terrarium system look like if it was built to military standards?

[drache]

it might not look that great, but it sure would be heavy

[RedSided]

Is that operation flashpoint in the pics or armed assault?

Great games!

[Stefan-A]

Rhea, I expect it to be quite heavy, 17 kilos of wood (not including glass doors), but then again, I'm not that small either. Moving them won't be a problem. Might drill holes for detatchable carrying handles if I feel it's necessary.

Indeed it is Flashpoint (with dxdll installed). Oxygen is excellent for making simple models, even if it is quite limited compared to a real CAD program.

yours will be much better looking than anything the military comes up with
without the doors it's not prohibitively heavy, either

So Stefan, when will you start building these?

It'll probably be several hundred thousand dollars cheaper, too .

Rick

you bet
and that's a conservative estimate

[Stefan-A]

So Stefan, when will you start building these?

I have no idea. Might have all the necessary parts in a couple of weeks.

Then it's going to be a year or so before I can get rid of the old ones.
