  1. Joe your inside fenders fit up nice. Glad to see everything lining up for you.
  2. Much better now and I’m sure that the pins will stay in place better now.
  3. Working on the hydraulic lines
  4. Joe your shifter looks awesome!
  5. Herman, Awesome scratch building! Thanks for sharing your step by step building instructions.
  6. Nice progress Pat. Looking forward to seeing your next updates.
  7. Gator looks like you are in a trailer building mode now! Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
  8. Nice work on your cab hinges. Looks like you could add another plate next to your current ones to fill in the gap.
  9. Thanks Gator Trial fit up of transporter #1& #3. Next will be to run all the hydraulic lines for both transporters. I’m going to make up the elevation difference between the two in the rigging supporting the vessel. Thanks for everyone’s comments.
  10. Nice build looking forward to seeing it all finished.
  11. Jacobus looking forward to seeing your current Progress pictures
  12. Paul, there’s going to be 4 transporters thanks Jeff I was able to get some more painting done and finished the anchor bolt rings. I also added the top nozzle with a blind flange. Next will be to install the remaining nozzles and man ways. Then I will put the insulation on it.
  13. Thanks Herman, Pat, this is how I laid out the bolt template first I used the compass to setup the diameter and then divided length of the diameter for the spacing. As you can see I marked to bolt holes before cutting the center part out
  14. Very interesting build looking forward to seeing it all finished.
  15. Thanks Joe and yes you did help me with the windshield on the roll back. Been working on the vessel anchor bolt rings with 40 anchor bolts that holds it on the foundation. Also working on the shoulders in between the rings. Plus some primer and red on transporter #3.
  16. Thanks Francis, the cost impact has not been to bad seeing I’ve been picking up all the parts over the last 5 years a little here and a little there. Gator the length of the vessel is 32” long or in 1/25 scale its 66.6’ long and a 10.5’ diameter. As far as vessels go this is a short one but with a 3” heavy wall thickness making it a high pressure type vessel.
  17. Nice modifications Gator to your lowboy.
  18. Cool build. I didn’t know that Jifflox chassis’s exists
  19. Nice detailing Pat. I like your outside work bench too.
  20. Nice progress and good luck with undoing the chain.
  21. Here’s a little mock up of the vessel on the transporters. I’ve still have to built 2 more transporters to build and the Mack to tow it.
  22. Here’s the start of building my vessel with the first of 2 anchor bolt rings that will be spaced 12” apart at the bottom of the vessel. 40 anchor bolts to hold it down on the foundation.
  23. Gator yes you’re correct I’ve got 2 sets (Old & new) of each that I’m going to use. Thanks for all the comments I’m starting on the vessel while I’m getting the 2nd transporter ready for paint.
  24. Small update for today added the hold down brackets on all sides. More to come I’ve got transporter #3 ready for paint just waiting on the weather to clear up.
  25. Jeff it’s a C2 splitter for a Oilfin Recovery unit. It’s a chemical plant that makes plastic.
