The useful part

Spotted in the Cadbury factory, this is an interesting detail for an industrial scene. A bunded area is somewhere to park a tanker, with drainage to avoid spills spreading. I'd assume this is normally where it is being loaded or unloaded, but this one seems not to have any facilities for this.

How it works

  • You'll need a sign, of course: <img alt="Tanker sign" border="0" data-original-height="1872" data-original-width="2060"...
  • Modelling would be simple enough: some gratings around the edge of a concrete area.
  • You could probably scribe the lot into card, unless someone laser-cuts the gratings.
