Reply to "Grain elevator progress (pics)"

Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

 

Keith - The "Big One" is the 1/2 mile long one in Hutchinson, KS.  But there are so many "big" ones that it's hard to tell sometimes.  Great pictures!

 

Ted - So you will have an Oreo in your retirement stocking instead of Mac & Cheese?

 

Apple & Spud Line - I will share basic construction in a separate post.  It is very easy though.

 

Matt - It looks like a lot of us have a love of grain elevators.  Every small town in the Midwest seems to have an elevator so we can model so many different types and styles.  A Midwestern town just doesn't look right without one.

 

Ironhorseman - Beautiful picture of the elevator in Seattle!

 

Lee - There are so many ways to find space for one.  The area of this one is 9" wide, that's the width of an Ameritown building.  That was too wide for a track beside my double wide silo version, so I added a single silo extension that works well in 4 1/2".  I am going to cut single silos in half and mount them on my backdrop at my town of Ruthven.  So I think they can be worked just about anywhere.
