    BASE: Refuelling & Repair Platform

    Don’t get stranded because of an empty tank or engine failure. Top-up and get a maintenance check here before travelling!

    All ships need both eventually, so this model is an always-relevant accompaniment to any ship.

    The nozzle can be appropriately clicked into/onto a ship before hitting the lever to dispense fuel. It loosely sits on the frame when not in use.

    The repair drone undocks and has a gas-torch, soldering-iron, screwdriver, wrench and fire-extinguisher (in case a ship comes in hot).

    The modules can be used free-standing. Each has a 'sensor' for 'contactless payment/identification' or 'ship-scanning'.

    Also, there’s a paper-holding plate behind, on which a postcard-sized printed background could be placed to declare where this model is located. Maybe add a photograph/drawing of space or a planet to make the scene look as if its’ on a moon or an asteroid — and as if a ship is getting refills at each whilst touring them all.
