Ishoo Forteen: Pumping Stations

Well, after a bit of a delay caused mostly by the return of the dreaded work, here's Ishoo Forteen: Pumping Stations. Nothing says industrial SF hell world more than a great big rusty network of giant pipes containing Glod alone knows what, and thanks to the PVC plumbing section of your local hardware supplier, nothing could be easier. In fact, as the old syaing goes, even a hippo could make it!
Take it away Grot!




Technical bits:
For this project, you need the following PVC parts:
  • Six 15mm inside diameter 90 degree elbow bends
  • Two 15mm inside diameter 45 degree elbow bends
  • Four 15mm inside diameter T-Juntions
  • One 15mm inside diameter connector
  • One meter of 15mm inside diameter pipe
The adeptus mechanicus icon is made from an old Citadel Skeleton Warrior shield boss and a plastic cog taken from inside a powder-type asthma inhaler, similar cogs can be found in other places I am sure.

Make sure your pipes connect to the pumping station at the right hiegh by using a short length of pipe and a T-Junction to hold it at the right hieght.

In out next Ishoo, we'll have a look at making ruins for Morheim, and in Ishoo Sicksteen, we'll be making toxichem ponds according to the reader's choice poll. See you then.
