Quite a few hours later and the gas works is beginning to take shape. The smaller buildings are now missing, and the larger gas holder is just a cylinder, but the house, retort house and older gas holder have been advanced to include many of the details seen in the various photos and films. Think of this application of SketchUp as being a palette for painting a picture of something that no longer exists. Accurate scaling can come at a later date.
The front view, as might have been seen from SteveNCB7754's bedroom window:
And the view from the other side:
Windows are still missing where I have no evidence to place them.
The lattice girders for the older gas holder frame were fun to construct.
Well, this project can be put aside for a while, I really need to get back to the Comet Caprotti kit building project.
