I just started a project to add some tanks and distillation towers to an existing oil facility on a customers layout. Here are some pictures of the items being constructed.

Absolutely stunning work, Alan!
Hmm, I wonder where those are heading!!! Looking great as usual
You hit the nail on the head Mr. Ewing
I bet laying out those steps on the side of the tank was a chore. Looks great tho.
Where do you find the steps , ladders, and pipes for these-- or are they all scratch built?
The tanks are constructed from .020 inch thick styrene sheets. The stairs are cut from .030 inch thick styrene sheets. The stair posts are .060 inch thick styrene square bars. The stairs are installed when the sheets are flat. I will post more pictures.
Always amazing work. Thanks Alan.
Wow! That really is awesome work!

Beautiful!! Those are amazing!! I don't know how I missed this thread before.
Great work Alan. I wish I could be as talented as you.
Alan, once again you modelling talents, especially in regard to tanks, refineries and chemical processing plants leaves me in awe.
Thank you very much fellas. I am glad you like the structures. Tanks are my favorite thing to construct.
Alan, outstanding as usual!! Mr Ewing has his crew preparing the property for the new additions, I noticed a lot of bulldozers and earth movers on the site yesterday!!
Beautiful work. Impressive!
That is awesome Mr James.
