The subject matter of this blog is the Steel Industry and Railroading. Most of the posts deal with my attempt to model an integrated steel mill in HO scale, however, there will also be posts on real railroading and the real steel industry as well as other industries, and for that matter, general topics, that interest me.

B-FURNACE Part 13
Back to the B-Furnace stoves. I built the upper stove walkways and the sign that is based on the USS Central Furnaces in Cleveland. The sign was pretty tedious to make - I used 1/2" stick on letters as templates, cutting the actual letters out of .020 styrene. The sign supports are .040x.040 strip. The upper platform is built from .030 styrene, with the usual .030x.030 posts and .020x.040 railings. One change with this furnace is that the prototype had the bottom half of the railings closed in. I used .020x.250 strip for this purpose.
