This is my Rocinante model which is supposed to represent the Rocinante ship as it featured in the very last episode of the season 6 of the show Expanse. It has CSL plating, railgun, PDCs and torpedo tubes. The model is 50cm long and has several features. - Retractable PDCs - Posable landing legs - Retractable Airlock cover - Extendable Air-bridge. - Attachable stand Model is once again a kit so you do not need a glue (with one exception described in the assembly video). I highly recommend to look at this video to know, how to assemble everything together: <figure class="media"><div data-oembed-url="https://youtu.be/M02tMysBd8A"><div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 100%; height: 0; padding-bottom: 56.2493%;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/M02tMysBd8A" style="position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; top: 0; left: 0;" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div></div></figure>

<h4>Description and contextualization</h4><blockquote>A present to you, a Rack for the Mutil-Modular Storage System (MMSS) that I've been developing. Don't go running to buying a ton of filament, first you must understand how this work....You can do it step by step.You can start with a simple model, and store it in your closet, some drawer, or card box; a month later, you may buy something else and print the corresponding module to store your precious component or accessories. Someday, you may need a box or maybe a case (if you have to transport your things) to store the modules you already have…In the limit, some people, need a complete rack, because they have a lot of things (maybe a print farm).But this rack, on its own, has the Build plate dispenser, and for most people, this project ends there. But you are like my, and make things scalable and that's why this is all modular.</blockquote><h3>Introduction</h3>This rack serves as a support to the different projects carried out around what I can already call an ecosystem, namely; <ul><li><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/556159-multi-modular-storage-system-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Multi-Modular Storage System -MMSS</a> </li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/557727-box-with-lid-for-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Box with lid for MMSS</a></li><li><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/556615-case-for-the-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Case for the MMSS</a></li></ul><figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/354238/2023-09-18_yakhnxubxzta.jpg"></figure></td><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/354238/2023-09-18_h8ksq5b2vafv.jpg"></figure></td><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/354238/2023-09-18_opyjqt3vl1be.jpg"></figure></td></tr><tr><td><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/556159-multi-modular-storage-system-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Multi-Modular Storage System -MMSS</a> </td><td><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/557727-box-with-lid-for-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Box with lid for MMSS</a></td><td><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/556615-case-for-the-mmss" rel="nofollow noopener">Case for the MMSS</a></td></tr></tbody></table></figure><ul><li>The amount of modules you can add is growing fast:<ul><li><a target="_blank" href="https://www.printables.com/model/557566-mmss-2x4-module-glue-stick-and-hexagonal-keys" rel="nofollow noopener">MMSS 2x4 Module -
