Space Garage idea

[Sasami_TN]

Now that you think about it, most curious why the International Space Station would rely so much on planetside rocket/shuttle scheduled launches to bring in needed equipment for repairs when they should have a small garage with "extras" inside in which to pull stock items from. And while we're at it, why don't they have a small tractor (worker-bee) for moving modules/equipment around and for "receiving" modules/equipment from a launch?

So my thought is to use the spacejunk mod to make one and add "mission critical" spare parts (if bound for another planet) or "stock part replacements" (if for spacestation around the homeplanet). It's also a really neat place to poke around when you're bored. There could be parts for making all sorts of things which blink, unfolds, buzzes, or moves around. Different people can use whatever stuff they want or even turn it into a large greenhouse in space. I just like it looking more like a one-stop shopping place, like a mini-mall for gizmo's, thingamabob's and whatchamacallit's. Or if you're a guy, like a hardware store.. in space.
