I think a part of the reason for the lack of response is that we don't know enough about your skill level to advise you further. Is this your first scratchbuild? Your second? Fifth? If you are an experienced builder, we don't want to say something that would come across as condescending like "start with three tubes and add rectangles and pipes on top", but if you are a new guy, then maybe basic tips would be in order.

So help us help you :big_grin:
