:tongue-out3:Hey Paul, have fun painting all that "Spaghetti"

Thankfully, almost all the fittings & pipe are molded in silver. I have a new respect & admiration for plumbers as I have to measure, measure again, cut, dry fit, cut, dry fit, etc. to get my plumbing to fit properly. Although I'm getting better at it. PaulE

Some more progress. Waaaaaaay more work than I anticipated. PaulE

Paul,
That looks excellent.

DAAAMN that piping... it will be stunning.. can't wait

[Mini Me]

That looks like a job for the old "Rattle Can". I wouldn't want to "Hairy Stick" my way through that jungle. :thinking: That's a lot of laid pipe!
The whole layout and construction looks very well co-ordinated, great result so far.

Thanks guys. My middle name is Missioncreep. This was just supposed to be a filler for the far corner. I won't touch "laid pipe" Rick. PaulE

It is turning out that each component is a model by itself & integrating them as one very complex model is no joke. PaulE

Some progress. PaulE

I used to sell proximity switches for a living, and one of my customers made greasers. The idea was that the proximity switch would detect the outside of the wheel flange and operate a compressed-air solenoid that squirted a dose of grease onto the inside of the flange.
