Here is the space where I will plant the plant, It's roughly a five foot by thirty inch space. I am bashing two of the Walthers Valley Cement kits to build Hercules from. It sounds like a large structure, but it is small when compared to the prototype. I had to compress the plant greatly and leave out several of the buildings to make it fit the space that I have. I started by scanning the parts of the kit and building mockups to see how things would fit as far as buildings and structures go.
Then I was able to start on the loading building. I built a jig and cut some of the silos in half and glued them together to make 16 short silos instead of 8 tall ones.
