Layout module for Kanimbla station under construction using laminated pine board, with pine skirts and bracing screwed underneath. The island platform is also pine and screwed to the top. Cut through the board are openings for points drives, signals and electromagnetic uncouplers, with cork roadbed laid over the top. End walls are temporary to protect the module from damage.

Think you could land this on the moon? This is a mockup of the lunar module that landed on the moon between 1969–1972. it carried two people. 6 landings on the moon were made.
The "Y Module" was created in 1988 and published in "Modular Origami" a self-publication. The module, folded from square papers is based on the 60 degree geometry. When assembled, a "Y" band is form on the triangular faces of the model and a small pinwheel motif on all the corners.
3 of the 5 Platonic Solids can be assembled from this module. They are the Tetrahedron, the Octahedron and the Icosahedron. All of these polyhedra have triangular faces.
30 Modules, folded from 15cm square Kami are used to assemble the Icosahedron.
These are the diagrams for the decagon cross module.
Nothing really new. As I have explained at the octagon cross module:
If you want to double the corners of the polygon, then you have to bisect to important angle for the inside reverse fold (step 2).
So start here with the Pentagon Cross module.
The steps 7 to 11 are just for hidding some paper. You can do it also in other ways to get some variations. The width of the flap shouldn't be wider than the width of the pocket.
The assembly of the modules is similar to the assembly of the square cross modules, here only with ten modules.
The angle at step 5 has not exact 72 degrees, but the approximation with 71.98 degrees is close to it.
Now, can you see the way to the icosagon ??
The Zeplina Power Module was created to power the worlds largest zeppelin, this piece was destined for stardom as an epic event in history. However, its extreme weight and the fact it was mounted at the front of the zeppelin meant that the nose couldn't get of the ground, even with the excessive amount of power it produced. The zeppelin cruised along, bum in the air, nose to the ground like a dog sniffing out the trail of dragged sausages. The zeppelin company refused to pay for the item, so I turned it into a lamp and this (almost) piece of history is for sale!

This allows for natural convection cooling of the modules as cool air will enter the bottom of the module, and warmer air will exit the top of the module. If ever needed, forced air can also be introduced to the module from the bottom.
Prius 2nd Generation Battery Module. Popped its top going up a hill. This was one of 38 modules in a rebuild Generation 1 battery pack. Replaced it but I suspect I have other modules in failure mode. Bummer, but you get what you get when buying off Epray (Ebay).
This is the 3rd module (of 6 currently built) that is part of my JunkTown MOC. This is a bit of a Junk Yard

Lumix G2 with 50mm f1.8 Miranda lens reverse mounted on Miranda Focabell bellows unit.
Light Modulator. Collaborative design between Liam Hopkins and Richard Sweeney.
Birch plywood, wingnuts. 2008.
130x73cm. Edition of three.
A computer-generated form was converted into modular sections, which were cut from 1.5mm birch plywood using a CNC routing machine. Emphasis was placed on limiting the number of unique module shapes in order to simplify construction; twenty six unique units are used in total, repeated through the symmetry of the form.
The City Space theme continues to inspire. I wanted to use the curved quarter panels as a windscreen, and by excellent luck had the matching curve plate in sand blue. From then on it was just a matter of mixing the design cues and colour scheme from the sets with my build.
Rather pleased with this, looks chunky and industrial near-future. The crane, while functional, can't lift the module without ripping itself apart. Oh well.
Probably won't take any more pictures of the module itself either, it's just an empty shell that seems to be more like a double-decker carriage on a scenic train than a science module. Some more work on that will be required, I think. But that's a problem for another time. I already have an idea for a larger build that will incorporate four of these modules.
The MRF24J40MB is Microchip’s second 2.4 GHz Radio Frequency (RF), surface-mountable transceiver module. This new module adds +20 decibels per milliwatt (dBm) of transmit power via an integrated Power Amplifier (PA) and -102 dBm of receive sensitivity via the integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) to the proven IEEE 802.15.4 compliant transceiver, PCB antenna and discrete matching circuitry. More transmit power allows designers to expand the range of their IEEE 802.15.4-based ZigBee or proprietary-protocol wireless networks.
While cleaning out a cabinet, we found a router that had it's module handles bent so it could fit in the drawer. WTF!

This is my version of the Hendecagon Cross module.
The angle for the exact hendecagon has 73.64 degrees. My approximation here has 73.66 degrees. It is quite close to it.
The steps 10 to 14 are just for hidding some paper. You can do it also in other ways to get some variations. The width of the flap shouldn't be wider than the width of the pocket.
The assembly of the modules is similar to the assembly of the square cross modules, here only with eleven modules.
