There are 4 lites each in the smaller stacks, will be 6 to 8 in the large stack. Will add pole lites from the ground up to fill in any large dead spots.

This time i installed all white lites in the main stack. Was out at the refinery for work this week and got a good look at the lites there. So now i have a mix of white and amber. Center tower done. Now to weather the towers and add catwalks and ladders.

[Grumpy468]

Making progress. Still lots to do.

Adding the ladders and cages, this is going to be a long haul.

[Grumpy468]

This is a tricky kit to put together. If you are building this, be aware that the ladders go on with the legs outward. This is where the cages attach too. I put this on on in reverse, but was able to salvage it before the glue really set.

[Grumpy468]

Got one tower glued in place on its base. Will add them 1 by 1 then join them together with the 3 tier catwalks.

[Grumpy468]

Added some debris i made, and going to add some people. Second stack is on.

[Grumpy468]

Got all the ladders and catwalks on as well. There are a few pipes and some accessories.

Sheldon, if someone tole me that you invented a locomotive that ran on propane, and now you're producing your
own fuel in the basement, I'd be inclined to believe them.  Especially after a few beers !

That is one incredible model !

Thanks Ken.    Lots going on in my basement at the moment.

[Grumpy468]

well I glues on the top pipe rack, and added the 4 pipes to the main tower. As well I added 2 workers. I am going to have to place an order soon for accessories.

Made 4 amber LED lites to go around the furnace. Going to add left over ladders and railings from the refinery kit, will require some mods to the rails.

[Grumpy468]

The 4 furnace lites are done. a lot of work to make fabricated and solder everything up, inline resistors to drop voltage to 3 VDC.
