Bild-a-Port- The 'Bild-it' series, produced
by G in Deneb sector, includes 'kits' for starports, hospitals, stores, factories,
mines, homes and more, limited only by imagination and demand. The kits
do not include labor or infrastructure such as buildings, power, life-support,
etc... unless ordered, usually doubling the price of the product. The kits
may also require connections to utility grids adding to the price.
For example the 100 MCr Bild-a-Port kit provides all
the tools and equipment necessary to set up a repair facility equivalent to
a class B port capable of repairing up to 10 kdtons of shipping per year if
supplied with parts and materials. Additional units increase the capacity
of the facility as long as labor is supplied.
The addition of the 500 MCr Bild-a-Jump Drive Factory
completes the class A facility able to build a 1000 dton ship yearly. Various
Store, Restaurant, Hotel, Passenger terminal, etc...Bild-it 'kits' can be
purchased to create a true class A or B port. Other Bild-it-Factory units
can be purchased to supply the necessary parts for the port to build vessels.
The companies brochures show that a minimal class A
port with associated production facilities bought through the Bild-it line
would cost approximately 2 GCr before infrastructure was added. A workforce
of around 10,000 would be required for the port and the associated production
facilities.
