If you plan to make any of the Elevator side or back pieces, I would suggest making 2 different back pieces: (1) in the same shape & design as the original piece and (2) a custom design where there side-vertical pieces and top-horizontal piece are a little thicker which allows an open space without the "V" supports. This way, you could actually play/pretend that small vehicles (like the Sky Hawk) were actually being loaded onto the elevator.
I'm pretty excited about you making USS Flagg parts. I've posted links to your Shapeways site and this forum on the Facebook USS Flagg "Admirals" group page.
Personally, I think the only missing piece I need is the mast cap (and a microphone - but don't really care about that). My son finally left for the USAF. So now that I have my office back, I am ready to move my USS Flagg out of the garage and set up a display for all my Joe stuff in my office. I've been working on a design for a custom 3-level Flagg that will be my primary custom project over the summer.

Thanks for the publicity. Have you seen any response in the group?
Parts the size of the elevator walls would be crazy expensive to print from an on-demand service like Shapeways or Sculpteo but anyone with a filament printer with a large enough print area could print their own at home for pretty cheap. I'd be fine with modeling them and putting modified replacement pieces on Thingiverse for people to enjoy if I get my hands on a set of those wall supports for measurement.
