I just realized that it's been a long time since I last posted a WIP shot of how I build stuff, so here you guys go!
Nick Bluetooth races onto the scene with his TDNX-Module Podracer! He's been tasked with defending the Outer Rim, rather than the entire dimension. For racing purposes, he's turned off the podracer's ability to navigate through dimensions. In addition to this, and not unlike the TDN Module, the vehicle is sentient. Nick usually refers to it by its nickname, the "Eggracer".
I found this module at Ikea. It was usually used for an entrance, but I integrated it in my closet. The shelves can be repositioned at any height. I also bought those handles at Ikea, because the original ones where black material-like and cheap looking. The new ones are way nicer! I found the shoe boxes at Home-Depot and used them not only for shoes, but for scarves, slippers, etc.

Nakagin Capsule Tower
(address : 8-16-10 Ginza Chuuo-ku Tokyo)
This is world's first Capsule Structure built in 1972. It is said that this is a prototype of "Capsule Hotel" in Japan.
"Capsule Hotel" is the Japan original accommodations. The first "Capsule Hotel" started business in Osaka in 1979. It is the tight accommodations to provide a simple bed to, but can stay at low fare.
There is "Capsule Hotel" in most cities of Japan now, but I don't have stay experience. Because it is tight space... :)
BTW, "Capsule Tower" and "Capsule Hotel" are "Mr. Kisho Kurokawa" of the same designer.

Haha, it's a pathetic sum of parts but one of the 20 essential modules to form the Island nonetheless.
9 rectangular Kami of 3x2 proportion [11.25cm x 7,5cm] are used to fold the Nonagon Cross Modules. Two 60 degrees folds are added to the other end of each module and assembled to form a 9-Pointed Star.
The model is actually a compound of 3 Equilateral Triangles. The 9-Pointed Star is also known as the Enneagram.
The control modules, left for the ride control and right for the car alarm.
The car alarm module ist not original, those with a blue label and ZT letters were used in the vectra A, Calibra and Astra F.
The module for the Senator has a yellow label and XE letters.
Paper: 7.5 cm DC
Modules: 6 face modules
Model: Tomoko Fuse
Book: Unit Origami Essence p. 60-61
I love this Tomoko Fuse book but tessellations and other folds have pushed my folding of polyhedra in the background. Among some sheets of DC paper which a colleague gave me (I think they came with the new book Origami Garten by Ioana Stoian), where these stripy psychodelic one, which seemed a perfect match for a stripy cube.
NASA astronaut Kayla Barron reopens the door to ESA's Columbus module, after two days and nights of the Space Station's side modules being closed as a precautionary measure against space debris.
Matthias posted this image to social media on 18 November 2021 with the caption: NASA Astronaut Kayla Barron reopening the hatch of ESA's science laboratory Columbus after 2️⃣ days and nights of the side modules being closed as a precaution against space debris. This also marked the end of our slumber party in Node 2, as I go back to sleeping in my CASA crew quarters in Columbus In the second picture, you can see the four crew quarters of my NASA Astronauts colleagues in the foreground, with my temporary diagonal "bed" at the back. Orientation doesn't matter in space – I slept beautifully 👌

The Lunar Module (LM) was the lander portion of the Apollo spacecraft. The LM was designed to transport two astronauts from the Command/Service Module (CSM) in lunar orbit to the moon’s surface and back.
When I started this project, there were a few design and construction decisions to consider. My main goal was to have the LM as close to minifig scale as possible and to have the structure as functional as possible. Therefore, a few elements could have been smaller (for example, the landing legs), but I chose to create an articulating version instead.

The Marshall Space Flight Center is responsible for designing and building the life support systems that provide the crew of the International Space Station with a comfortable environment in which to live and work. Scientists and engineers are working together to provide the space station with systems that are safe, efficient and cost-effective. For example, the water recovery system reduces crew dependence on delivered water by 65 percent. These compact and powerful systems are collectively called the Environmental Control and Life Support Systems, ECLSS. This is an exterior view of the U.S. Laboratory Module Simulator containing the ECLSS Internal Thermal Control System (ITCS) testing facility at the center. At the bottom right is the data acquisition and control computers (in the blue equipment racks) that monitor the testing in the facility. The ITCS simulator facility duplicates the function, operation, and troubleshooting problems of the ITCS. The main function of the ITCS is to control the temperature of equipment and hardware installed in a typical ISS Payload Rack.

This illustration shows the current version (v.5) of the track plan/module configuration for my Fareham layout project. This may change as I continue to build the layout; however, I have more or less used it to build the first 4x modules. The modular tables I am using are shown as alternating pink/blue rectangles and are nominally 45"x30" (3x2 48-stud baseplates). The rear section of the layout (at the top of the drawing) is a planned yard/storage area. I may change this section in order to accommodate more stock and to include "offsite" junction connections to modular club layouts. I will focus any changes on eliminating track sections which cross table boundaries. I want to ensure track sections are aligned with table boundaries so that they can be semi-permanently mounted to the table for better reliability.
The layout essentially consists of two main running lines each with independent control. Either line can be assigned to DCC operation or to one of 2x 9V DC "cabs". There is a C-Bus control network which runs around the layout to control the switches and the signals. Some of the boards also have independent switches for the lighting, e.g. street or platform lamps.
The diagrams show the folding of the Basic Compass Rose Module. This is just another variation of the Wind Rose Module. Do not use this module together with the Wind Rose Modules. I have not tried that but there is no harm trying. However, I cannot guarantee good results.
The assembly is similar to the "Snowflake Modules" posted earlier here - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/8487800798/in/set-7215... . Please refer to it if you are not familiar with the assembly. Leave a little gap between the edges of the cupboard fold [step 1] for easier assembling of the modules.

Akiyuki's Step Module GBC
Lego Technic
Designed by Akiyuki
Instructions by Jesuskyr and Blakbird
Master built by OneMoreRobot 2016
My take on set 10029 the Apollo Lunar lander. I used what parts I could find (and afford) on Bricklink and tried to make use of alternate pieces for what I could not.
After struggling with sub-standard tables at public shows resulting in warped baseplates, wavy track alignment, etc.; I decided I should build my own table modules. The design objectives were as follows:
1) self-contained table module with legs, wiring, etc. built-in
2) dimensionally aligned to integer multiples of 16-studs
3) mutually aligned with dowels and/or bolts in both end-end or end-side configurations
4) support optional drop-in modules between self-standing modules
The design you see here is the result. I have built 4x of these modules for my latest Lego model railway and I am quite satisfied with the result. They have proven to be very robust and provide a flat consistent surface for the baseplates. The disadvantage of this design is its weight. Its a compromise I was willing to accept in exchange for robustness. These modules have to survive the rigours of transport to/from public shows as well as within my own house!

Sjøhus, (sea houses, litterally translated) are industrial buildings from the times when boats were the only efficient way of transport. These cladded, timber frame buildings were used for all kinds of purposes connected to trade and fisheries on the Norwegian coast. The typical protruding part of the gable (vindehus) is protecting the hoist mechanism. Herring (sild) fisheries were so important for the earlier economic growth on the western coast it was the obvious choice for an advert on the wall.

A look at the slew of MILS Modules that I aim to have all assembled by '22. While I have quite a few large and fancy Modules planned, I do also plan to make more of the little guys, because you can never have enough straights!
I will definitely need to figure out how to properly store and transport them, especially when it comes to the irregularly shaped ones.
The pneumatically controlled punch modules are used for perforating leather, rubber and textile materials.

The island project started with this two year old MOC. Still acceptable and will be used as it is with the 11 other modules I plan to build.
The European Service Module-2 and Orion crew module adapter for the Artemis II Orion spacecraft was moved into the Final Assembly and System Testing (FAST) cell inside NASA's Operations and Checkout Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA. The spacecraft modules will be integrated with the crew module before being handed over to NASA's Exploration Ground Systems for fueling.
The European Service Module holds 8000 l of fuel in four tanks that is distributed to 33 engines.
The first European Service Module exceeded expectations on the Artemis I mission, powering the Orion spacecraft around the Moon and back on its test flight. It supplied temperature control, propulsion and electricity for the spacecraft. For the two-week Artemis II mission the European Service Module-2 will have even more critical tasks as it needs to supply drinking water and breathable air to the four astronauts in the Orion capsule: NASA’s Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch and Canadian Space Agency’s Jeremy Hansen.
In June ESA formally hands over the European Service Module-2 to NASA, ready for integration with the Orion crew capsule and then on the road to the launchpad, set for liftoff around the Moon in 2024.

Prism Module Three Intersecting Squares 12 units
This was another edge unit variation I have playing around with over the last couple weeks. One thing that is nice about these models is that they force a perfect 45 degree dihedral angle for the units. :)
The name comes from the illusory right triangular prisms that seem to form on either side around the center of a unit.
Designed by me.
Folded out of kami paper.
