Good Morning Everyone,
I am working on the second half of the flare tower. There will be much more detail here. Here are some pictures. Let's see what you have been working on.

Alan, are you going to rig this with a real flame? That would justify the word "awesome".
Tom
Al, you're making my simple attempt look really bad. But then, I'm not making a scale teaching tool for the industry...so there's that. I'm interested to see how you're going to build the ring of steam jets. I've solved the problem of getting the warning light wiring down to the bottom, but I haven't designed what the upper works are going to be yet. I'm winging it. Do you have actual prints of this device. Is there any way you can share it?

Real flame would indeed be impressive (although it would suffer from "special occasions only" syndrome).
Short of that, that kind of flame could be very convincingly simulated with a bit of silk cloth, a flickering LED, and a tiny computer fan. That would be totally worth it.

this is the new modern design. Flare structures from years ago just had the pilot at the top and maybe did not burn as efficiently.
Tom,
this will not be awesome. My mechanical ability to actually make something work is slim to none.
Myles,
i can probably copy some of the details and e mail them to you.
thanks guys,
alan graziano
