[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by bobgrosh</i> <br /><br />It looks like I could insert a piece of brass tube in one of the holes as a filler tube and then devise a cap. The other holes could be filled with body putty. Or, I could make a plastic plate to serve as the top of the drop in bunker/tank and add a filler tube to that. <br /> <br />Question: Which way should I go? The plate could be thick enough to make is seem like you are looking at a tank set into the existing coal bunker. <br /> <br />And... Should the filler tube be set to one side or centered? <br /> <br />And... Should I add a ladder or some sort of steps to reach the filler hatch? <br /> <br />And... Do they keep some sort of dip stick on this deck to check the fuel level? <br /> <br />So many questions. <br /> <br />B0B <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I think I would add the plate and center the filler, although as they say there is a prototype for almost everything. <br /> <br />On the dipstick question, I have no clue. Vic would probably know.
