Thank you Hotzenplotz and go for taking apart that printer...just make certain you do it over newspaper...ink in the carpet is very, very bad.

Absolutely fantastic scenery, exalted.
Thanks Olthannon, half the fun is in the planning...acquiring.

The term "granny grating" is a long running joke name for of a kind of plastic mesh available from needlework and sewing shops where it is sold for making tapestries. It's more properly known as "plastic canvas" or "plastic weave". For further information: ask your grandmother (or in our case, ask our mothers). It does not glue particularly well, so use two part epoxy rather than superglue.

It also doesn't take paint super-duper well. At least, if you're doing rust effects and chipping medium, when you rub off the medium, it rubs off all the layers of paint and the primer. One more detail about granny grating.
Love the terrain. Graffiti is always a nice touch.

Thank you Stevefamine.
So for the bi-monthly League of Extraordinary Riveters I have started two scratch-built Plasma Regulators (or something similar with Plasma) to fit the theme of "The Heat is On!"
I have started by collecting these parts.
Cheers,

Looks cracking CB. I know you'll paint it up to look a bit grimmer and darker, but I have to say I love the nice pinks and polka dots! Great use of parts, looking forward to the finish.

Those kids look perfect for plasma and the stripes lid on on of the boxes might be a perfect template for hazard stripes too!

Looks great painted, Cap.
Might benefit from a couple of notes or posters at some point, but otherwise I really like the utilitarian look of it all. Very similar to various heating stations around where I grew up.

I’d imagine the Mechanicum would want to keep their structures in good condition even on Necromunda! The lids (not kids  ) work really well as plasma coils too

That building looks pretty. You should have left the polka dots the box originally had.  But seriously, You have great ideas and bring them to very solid conclusion.

Thanks Sherrypie, I actually have some old paper posters to add...I just ran out of time for the competition, but may add them now.
