Well it's time for the weekly update I got the other electrical panel installed and plumbed as you can see below. It turned out pretty good.

Here you see a picture of the electrical panel from the right side of the AP it has a little silver overspray on the black I corrected that later.

Image

And here you see the panel installed before the plumbing work.

Image

Image

Here I have the plumbing made and test fitted before painting also the small step over catwalk has been installed just like on the other side and lined up with it. These are for adding the pipes that are run across and up in the bottom section of the AP.

Image

Image

Here are the plumbing pipes re-installed after painting.

Image

Image

The rest of these are just different angles of the AP with the electrical panels in place and the ladder standing there just to give reference to which side is the front.

Image

Image

Image

Image

That's it for this week guys the upper part of the AP is almost finished! I just need to finish up the railings and add the signage also touch up the paint in some areas.
Until next time please keep the comments coming I need them they keep me going.

Have a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year.

I appreciate the comments on the paint I have asked for input on that very thing you are the first to mention it.
It was all trial and error sometimes more error than trial but it turned out good.

Thanks
Charles
