I'm going to have to find that one, Thanks.

Of course - the fitting the inteior into the exterior problem is a
frequent problem with small space craft in TV/movies - especially older
series.
I _know_ there are good examples out there - but I cant remember any
just now - arrgh! :-(
Just though of 1 - Eagle Transporter from Space: 1999.

This isn't really relative to GZG stuff - unless you decide to build up
the interior of a FT spacecraft in 6mm/15mm/25mm and use DS2/SG2 to
fight boarding actions - I seem to remember someone did this once.
