Good Morning Everyone,
I have been working on a model of a flare and have almost completed the bottom half. Here are some pictures. This is a 300 foot tall tower I am modeling in o-scale. I am only constructing the bottom 50 feet and the top 70 feet. making the model about 30 inches tall. It will be used as a display/ training tool.
What have you been working on lately ?

Very nice. Commercial client? Where do you get the plans for these wonderful creations?
I am assuming that it's the knockout drum that we're seeing. It would be about 6 scale feet high if you built the hole thing. It would bump into my ceiling. The one I'm building scales at a bit under 100 feet so, it's small for a prototypical one, but it will fit the layout.
Myles,
You are correct. The customer is a consortium of companies located in Corpus Christi, Texas. I am starting the top section this weekend and I better get it done soon because the wife has just come up with a pretty big project for me.

Alan, I've made a few visits to corporate board rooms and seen some work very similar to yours proudly displayed in glass cases that are huge! Every time i see one I think about your amazing talent and think what a shame so few get to see it! Thanks for sharing it with us!!!!
Thank you very much Mr. Pete.
