I like the look of this. It's like a McDonald's cupholder - for space.

That'll make a nice signature.

Anyway, it looks very strange... I LOVE IT.

McKerbal's rocketholder

[Tommygun]

That should be useful.

I wonder if I could make an Altair lander like spacecraft out of it.

Thanks for the part.

[ThePyrateCaptain]

Interesting. I like it.

[llamatoes]

Nice, I like it.

That is so very appropriately Kerbal-esque.

[ahappydude]

Cool concept=)

That is so very appropriately Kerbal-esque.

In the news tonight, some engineers from Kerbal Space Control were seen visiting the local McDonalds and ordering a small fries and four MegaGonzo size drinks, to go. Witnesses claim that when asked what soda's the engineers wanted, one looked thoughtful for a second and then said "Jah, I see how ve could use the cups. But leave zhem empty so zat ve don't have to clean zhem." In other news, we're told to expect a light rain of french fries in the morning.

[Capt.Joseph Kerbertson]

I like it a lot.

[mauriciolisco]

nice,

i think i will upload a new version with this description

the part name could be McKerbal's Rocketholder

also, maybe i should raise the part weight to be more realistic

Very nice! I've put them to use as Duna landing platforms for structures.

The five nodes on either side make it pretty easy to build habitats and the like,

Also, for rover landing platforms.

Duna 5 Action News and Weather station

This weather monitoring station was originally the third stucture for this little colony site, but the primary habitat came down hard some 30km

away on the crater slope, sadly all six brave colonists on board were lost in the crash.

The platform for the rover landed about 150m away.

Rover landing platform

There was a bit of a mishap in the landing sequence on this one, the parachutes were not mounted

quite high enough, and caused the platform to flip over when they fully deployed, managed to land it on one edge

and use the legs to correct the flub after the chutes cut.

That is a pretty freaking cool use of this part you've got there mecha pants. You're really leveraging a lot of mods.

[mauriciolisco]

it's nice to see you really using my part and enjoying it

makes me want to evolve my skills

now i really need to level up my texturing skills, maybe adapt my modeling because of texturing. thats what i am having difficulty right now

You can definitely make things easier or harder depending on the complexity of your model. Try some simple shapes getting nice continuous textures going and then keep diversifying from there. Practice makes perfect when it comes to modeling + texturing.

I was just excited to get this:

My first no cheat munar landing.

[frizzank]

Im going to suggest calling it the cup holder mod.

Another set you could make would be a 3 triangle one and a side by side configuration. Also various sizes of each.

[eurybaric]

Definitely the cup holder chassis mod . Downloading as I type!

Cheers!

[Mecha Pants]

Started the day by trying out a platform for my second generation Duna utility vehicle,

ended up building a 81 ton kerbal habitat that can do its own semi-powered landings.

The new rover on its landing platform, parachutes were on I-beams in the corners, ejected after touchdown.

It's a Rocket-house, I dunno what else to say really. need to build a transfer stage for it though, and a launch rig.

I think it's pretty obvious at this point, but I think these are great structure pieces.

This is one of those simple, elegant, yet endlessly useful mods that will always have a home in my installs

I could find a use for a base like this at all the major radial attachment options: ie 2-8 symmetry.

[kahlzun]

nice shape

[Mechrior]

will DEFINATLY be keeping my eye on this one!!!! downloading now to see if i can make a hab for my minmus colony

[kahlzun]

It's a pity it doesn't allow 4X symmetry, it gets annoying trying to do it all one-at-a-time.
