Welcome to Micropolis2 (or call it Micropolis Lite)
This is a collaborative workspace! We're working on an update to the TwinLUG Micropolis building plate standard, which will allow easy routing of a power drop cable under the roads and modules, so we can easily power lights in the buildings on the modules.
Why bother?
- TwinLUG led the way with a Micropolis standard, making it easy to throw cities together at a gathering without significant coordination between the participants.
- Chicago has made big strides in getting people to light their larger MOCs, and now LifeLights and BrickStuff make it easy to add lighting in some of the smallest places!
- Lights are tiny... battery packs are not. My answer: Run power "underground"! But, instead of building a powered table and mandating where your modules should have connectors, my thought was to modify the sub-structure of the modules, to allow a power cable to snake from building to building. The power supply for a layout could come from one or two "power station" modules that could have any kind of model on it.
