Posted March 24, 20177 yr Hello Eurobrickers. Well I thought I might share with you here progress of a new project currently underway. This is the first installment of a Steel Mill for my trains to operate around. At present the building externals are still WIP but while waiting to get some bricklink orders in, I have begun creating some internal features. Here we have a Hot steel rolling production line. This is where steel plates are heated and rolled thinner before being treated or coated and then coiled before transportation to other industries. I will endeavor to update this topic with new builds as things progress along. Thanks.

March 24, 20177 yr I really like all the details and tightness of the build. The light in the furnace is a great effect!
March 25, 20177 yr Wow, I love industrial environment build up with bricks! Nice colour choise, keep up the good work!
March 25, 20177 yr Looking pretty impressive so far. Love how you have done the reheating furnace with the light making it look like a molten strip of steel coming out.
March 26, 20177 yr This looks brilliant already! Are you going to add some other working features, such as motorised rollers or a crane or something? I feel they would really add to this mill. It's becoming another detail-packed build. Good luck!
March 28, 20177 yr This looks really, really slick. The furnace I'm particular has an awesome effect!
March 28, 20177 yr For a while before I moved on to another welding job my job was to weld up the rollers that the metal hits to become a sheet of metal. This is an amazing model
March 29, 20177 yr Love it, nice details everywhere, and the use of the lights is brilliant idea here.
March 30, 20177 yr Really nice to see. This looks really realistic to me! For my work i order ALU/CU foils (on roll). Are you involved in this buisness irl?;-)

Nowadays I work for an Plastic Injection molding factory. Thanks all for the comments. Hope to show some new pictures soon of further progress.
March 30, 20177 yr Nice job, I love what you have done so far. Do you plan to build a Blast Furnace as part of your steel mill?
March 31, 20177 yr Your works are of great inspiration ... I need a foundry in my circuit. I'll have to steal some of your idea
July 22, 20186 yr That lighting effect effect for the furnace is excellent!! I do like industrial scenes (all the pipes and machinery is just so cool!) and this is a great example. Looking forward to seeing how this one progresses!! Nice work!
