| This is just a rough
guide to some of the materials that I used to make the "Refinery". Whenever I have mentioned the specific place I've bought certain items, I've also tried to provide some kind of contact address whenever possible. My giving out addresses shouldn't be seen as an endorsement of these businesses, but rather an attempt to make things easier for those people wishing to use some of the same materials that I've used.

The black and yellow base is made of masonite, but you could use plywood or craftwood. I wouldn't recommend foam core as a base because it is too fragile and will look tatty in no time. The grey levels on the ground and upstairs were made of foam core. |

All the strutwork and
railings were made using styrene strips, angles and piping. |

![]() Vitamin container tubes and caps |
The vitamin tubes were used to make the condeser towers. The caps from the vitamin tubes were used to make the boiler hatches. The main boiler was made using a cardboard tube from the centre or a cord reel. The flexible straw came from a 7 11 slurpee. |

| The pressure gauges came from left over parts from a WWII Africa Korps Half track plastic kit. The red pipe from the gauge is made from wire. The ladder was made from styrene strips. |

The pump is by Grendal, 32 West Hemming Street, Angus, Scotland. I bought the pump at part of a set that was named "Sci Fi cargo bay", from The Tin Soldier in Sydney, Australia. The hatch was from Games Workshop. |
