A close look at the Gamma ray collector, a unique looking kit from the Tubular buildings Kickstarter.
The set contains a small building with optional lighting and removable roof and a set of three collectors.
Each collector is a stack mdf cut-outs making up these interesting objects on one side of the building.
The kits is a decent size at 225x265x78mm and is pretty simple to build.
Great at blocking line of sight for troops and vehicles and looks great on the table top or on display.
The kit also included a row of six pipes on the back that can be painted up as power cores, water tanks or similar.
Also included are two optional doors and optional detail such as the cctv cameras.
Below are painted and unpainted pictures of the set with green lights.
Prices are very reasonable at £20 + shipping
or you can get it in a bundle with other buildings at a further reduced cost per building.
2 buildings at £40 +pp 3 buildings at £55 +pp 5 buildings at £95 +pp
Example board using the buildings from the tubular buildings kickstarter.
It features 5 of the commercial building and a bunch of the stretch goals and add-ons to make a very good table.
The addition of all the add-ons really break up the board and blocks line of sight across much of the map.
Several of the picture feature some 28mm models to show scale
Use of these attachment points can make your building your own by changing the shape of it, adding additional detail, connecting them together
Many of the different building have one or more attachment point. There are two types one for pipes and a loading door version.
The pipe version has three different sets so far a Service line, a flare stack and a pack of power cores + water tanks
The loading door attachments currently have the Landing pad, and a set of detail attachments
These sets can really change the dynamic of a building for example adding a landing pad and pipeline suddenly gives you a vantage point for troops to fire from and the pipeline snakes around the table top creating nooks and tight spaces for you troops all while blocking line of sight.
Adding some of the detail sets or water tanks change your building outline making it better at blocking line of sight and more interactive as you can weave in and out of the different sections.
Adding the flare stack again gives you some very high vantage points, the flare stack can be joined onto the Ammo dump, Smoke stacks and Quad silos using the bridges, your building could find itself at the centre of a maze between a maze of gangways.

We have a set of ruins and the foremans office add-on for the promethium rig.
The foremans office sits at the same height as the promethium rig and is connected by a single bridge. The railing can be cut in any place to allow the bridge to join on anywhere you wish.
The office comes with the same sliding doors as the rig and a removable roof.
Love seeing the work you're doing on this stuff. I don't have the funds to get in on anything, but the oil rig/platform is fantastic - something I'd have loved to have picked up sometime. Really slick.

Hi, I'm assembling the walkways and extention building for the KS and it seems that there's a small problem with the walkways.
The recesses at the end of the walkways to clips them to the border of the building are missing 1 or 2 mm to be wide enough to fit on the rim of the roof.
