Cliffside Water Tank | Bandit Canyon Railway

Steam boilers need water, so this week I'm building an old wooden water tank to perch high on the cliffs above the Blackjack Mine. Starting with a simple mailing tube, I add wood, paper, and metal details - plus layers of weathering - to bring the structure to life.
Thanks for watching, amigos!
