Thanks eveyone else I trying to make this the ultimate dio, so far so good.

Shawn I am planning on a like manufacturing building. I will have some small tanks no large refinery tanks though. But we will have some nice cranes on site that is for sure

Justin that is not a bad idea, I will have to look into it. Maybe at work this week I can find some pictures

Send me some pics Graham I had some plans on making a truck anyways I even made some axles so it would be all steer.

Everyone thanks for the comments I apprieciate them all, see tuned for more

"You will not find any working girls on this site "
LOL
Once again you have pushed me into more work! Picked up a HydroCal kit the other day - trying to put some scenery together this weekend. I might be able to shoot the scene next week, but I'm still waiting on a few items. The dio business is really time-consuming when one is clueless! LOL

Awesome detail work on that dio Jason ! If you run a thin straw hidden behind that stack on the dozer,loader and pump some smoke with maybe a lit cigarette or lil smoke machine it will look REAL ! Then photograph it bet it would look cool don't burn it down though !AKA Truesmoke diesels toy trucks long ago ! Teeth

So when you have the guard shack occupied, you realize he probably won't allow you on site with your camera gear, right? Wink


Hey it has its perks to be the owner sometimesTeeth You will not find any working girls on this siteWhistle

How is ULF coming along

Jason


Things are looking real good. When you brought in that guard shack the first thing that went through my mind was Ulf's jobsite babes had a place to set up operations now. So I suggest going in the shack every morning don't just drive by and wave at the smiling guard We know what he's smiling about.lolCool Mark L

That was a good one. I might have to look into getting some people for my dio once I get more into it.
