How to build a circular airlock door in No Man's Sky, full tutorial excluding wiring

I've completed the tutorial for this airlock door. I hope it's informative! I'll be uploading the shorter one where I do wiring and that walkway shortly after this.

This requires a working knowledge of glitch building techniques, including all types of wire glitches and adjacency glitching, so become familiar with those before you start.

I thank everyone for their support and interest in this, and all the kind words you've given me.

This build was made possible in no small part by the projects and techniques I've seen and learned over the years from builders like:
• Action Pants Gaming (whose amazing art builds using the perfect circle inspired this design)
• AshFacta (who came up with the original airlock door in Blender and inspired me to try to recreate it on PS4)
• Beeblebum (whose perfect circle tutorials gave me a new, easier circle technique to use, and whom I appreciate and respect for his many contributions to building and the community at large)
• Boid (whose legendary building speed and prowess gave me the gumption to keep building, and whose many tutorials and builds gave me tons of ideas)
• DG_Squared (who built one of Action Pants Gaming's exocraft-summoning-station mandalas right in front of me and blew my dang mind, which made me want to go down this path)
• NMSKibbles (whose many tutorials over the years gave me both basic and advanced techniques to string together and build into even more techniques)
• Slade Braddock (whose friendship and builds have brought me great joy and awe over the years, and have driven me to do more)

If I started listing the many builders who've made my jaw drop to the floor countless times, and whose many works have been a constant source of ideas and beauty, I'd be here all week, but suffice it to say they've all played at least some part in this and most or all of my previous builds. And of course the rest is just the things I learned by just building and figuring things out as I went.

Thanks again, everyone, and I hope you enjoy!

PS Many have pointed out that this looks like the Large Hadron Collider, and, well...yeah! You're right! I think that'll have to be a future build.
