One of few entirely scratchbuilt projects- this cooling tower. After about two years of
hapless searching, I stumbled over this $2 vase at Walmart, and immediately recognized
the iconic shape, and that it would just about perfect for an HO compression piece.
Spray painted it with Rustoleum, and got the decals off eBay. The containment
dome in the background is half a toy plastic Easter egg, also found at Walmart
as I was walking in.
