Set blueprint exchange


This is perfect! Exactly the design and layout from the Darmok episode and the dimensions are almost a perfect fit with the space I have available. Here's a quick edit overlaying the design and the space :

Are there any elevations of this floorpan available? The elevation behind the desk of the view screen looks to have changed a bit from the Datalore episode. Also, any idea what the references (1,2A,2B,2C, 3 etc..) are ?

Thanks for the help!
 
Lt. Washburn - We do have those ST experience blueprints already

The cloning pod base is new though and has been added here (flickr links):
Base 1
Base 2
Base 3
Base 4

The cloning pod base wasn't turning up on my ebay searches or listings of the seller's items. For some reason, if the item doesn't ship to my country, then it doesn't show up on ebay even if I used the american site. I would have completely missed this item if Lt. Washburn hadn't found it.


I've found a few more blueprints on ebay - following links (apart from source) are to the flickr pages

I'm not sure exactly. If you search through the Albums on that Flickr account, for TNG sets and also Star Trek: The Motion Picture sets, you can find more blueprints of Data's quarters, because it was also Kirk's and others' quarters from the movies.
 
Probably because it was first envisioned smoother than the final result. The main hull looks a lot like the rear end of the Reliant.

And it uses a Klingon bridge!

At last, we see the mysterious Grissom bridge layout. Apparently it was the Enterprise bridge flipped 180 degrees with the command area slid over closer to the wall. Very odd looking decisions for the set design there.
 
I've never seen those exact schematics before, but I had seen the Grissom layout before. I'm not sure where.

I had no idea about the Merchantman bridge, though they basically could have filmed that scene in a closet, it was nondescript.

That set saw a lot of use. It was used on several '80s TV shows, as well, wasn't it?

They only shot Grissom from the one side and no really wide shots if I remember right. They only needed the helm, comm station and science station really so makes perfect sense to just use what you have. Actually looking at that it's basically what they would have shot using TOS set with the wedges pulled out and I think even for Enterprise when they did the Mirror Universe bridge. Only build what you need, or in this case, re-arrange it to get what you need.

I want to say it might have appeared in an episode of McGuyver for some reason. I never watched that show, certainly not on a regular basis, but my misty old mind does seem to think that might have been the case.
 
They had some seriously masterful set designers back then to be able to disguise it so effectively. I don't think many people noticed what it was.
