Is there a larger version of the Prime base map?

I understand they were trying to economize, but the size is so small that is is nearly useless (maybe my eyes are getting old lol).

I was considering redoing them in Illustrator, but I figured before I put in the effort I would see if someone had done something like that before.

I don't know if anyone has at all. It would be great. Unfortunately, Prime Base is so general that all kinds of unrelated material comes up in any web search.

Maybe with the new edition we will get a new Prime Base module.

I believe this is the general location for Prime;

https://www.google.ca/maps/place/41%C2%B024'06.9%22N+119%C2%B007'59.1%22W/@41.4050002,-119.1408148,13257m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x0

This would be a good start for a re-do of the maps.

I have Illustrator too, is there a shortcut somewhere to furniture and other standard fittings?

I don't want to tediously re-create beds and desks......... computer banks either for that matter.

A new black and white edition would be awesome with a deluxe full color on better paper for a bit more would be awesome.

Maybe Mr. LBraden knows some open source models for hardware and furniture?

A collaborative effort on the forum to make a better and more logical Prime Base?

Ah, Thanks anyway.

I will look into some of the free interior design and home design software that is for free a C/Net download (dot) com.

You can go here and search for some .DWG files to import. There are quite a few, though some could use some fix up as there are open paths and what not. That is par for the course with CAD files in my experience.

Maybe one the these cartographers would be interested in doing something for the Morrow Project. Many are very good. Some do 3D drawings also.
