XG BC Posted August 11 Posted August 11 Hey guys, Today i made a different way to make a tanker car, using the airplane roof parts. Quote
Selander Posted August 13 Posted August 13 Yeah agree with M_slug357... It's a creative use of parts, but it doesn't look like a tanker car.... Quote
dr_spock Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Don't think I've seen too many tall and narrow tanker cars. Higher center of gravity could make speeding around curves fun. That style of tank is used for storing heating oil for home furnances around here since it takes up less space in the backyard. Quote
XG BC Posted August 15 Author Posted August 15 (edited) i have since refined the design a bit, its a tad wider now, and i will lower the Tank aswell, pictures will follow when i am done with the irl build, it looked weird irl too, i agree. this was more of an attempt to use these pieces i had laying around. our heating oil storage is actually in a tank room in the house, behind a fireproof door, i think this is the case everywhere in germany.

Darkkostas25 Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Hmm, I think it could work for some narrow environment where the width is limited and you need to use height. Clever design Quote
XG BC Posted August 15 Author Posted August 15 First irl build, still need to change a few things. the tank is inset a bit, and its one stud wider and shorter now. needs more detail and stuff but its a start. Quote
