Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.

As I'm sure many folks do, I sometimes spend idle time watching YouTube videos. Often I find myself focusing on the DIY terrain builds for miniature wargaming. Recently I saw several great vids on scratch built chemical plants. Not that I need any more terrain (I DON'T!), but I couldn't resist the urge to do a chemical plant. How many WH40K images have you see over the years on the internet with the gallant Space Marines taking on some foe or another at a chemical plant? Somewhere deep in my slightly warped mind was a gnawing to build one of these bad boys.
I saw an eBay auction for the old Pegasus Hobbies Chemical Plant (made in Russia if I'm not mistaken). You can still find a sprue or two around on the internet but not too often do you see a complete kit. I won the auction (got it for a really good price) and it arrived here in no time. So now, I have the kit and as soon as I complete a couple of the current builds, I'm going to try my hand at a project that will be half scratch built and half kit built (I have a vision in my head). I'm thinking I might add my Gothic Train to it. We shall see, boys and girls. When I tackle this project, pics will be sure to follow. Until next time.
