Scott,

I just recently saw photos from a train show that showed a water tower
made with the technique used by Erik Brok, perhaps it was his creation.
The circle was formed using 1x3's and 1 rounds. I cannot recall how
it's base or top was formed though. Perhaps someone else can post
the link to the photos, which I believe were on brickshelf.
Sorry I don't have more info for you.

To All,

I am trying to build a fuel storage tank for MichLUG's upcoming Science
Fiction event, Contraption, and I am having a few problems. The problems
comes from trying to take ordinary bricks and making a circular tank out of
them.

Did anyone build anything like this before? Does someone have a suggestion
on how to do it? Maybe some links to past creations?

Any help would be appreciated, or else it might come out a big box with some
valve attachments to it. Viola intstant tank!

Sincerely,
Scott S.

Kevin & All, (...) how he got that curve, must have been a very gentle angle on the 1x2's. Scott S. -- (23 years ago, 10-Jun-01, to lugnet.build)
