I came across a photo of a propane vaporizer on the web. I had the makings of a tank that would be just right for a model of it so, I decided to build one.
I started with the frame:
The vaporizer tank is made from a piece of 1/2" PEX tubing
The tank was made from a plastic bottle that held aroma beads. The diameter is almost exactly the same size as the bottom of an ordinary soda can. by carefully cutting the metal it just snapped over the end of the tube!!
I used sanding sticks to sand the aluminum down flush.
A little Squadron putty smoothed every thing out
Here is the frame, the tank, part of the vaporizer and part of the electrical system
So far so good
I hope to have the model done around New Years.
