Hi all!
I found a source for my water tower spout and hardware: Hartford Products.
Now I need a source for ready made brass/metal chimneys or smoke stacks.
For buildings.
Any ideas, or should I try to make some out of brass tubing.

Plastic tubing works too. Plastruct has a large selection of tubing. If you can’t find it in town, which I doubt, you can order direct. The advantage of plastic is that you can easily add a cap or lip without having to solder. Go to plastruct’s website and download their complete catalog. It’s a feast from heaven. Pitiful what we have on the shelves here in town.
I made my own. The stack is 1/2" copper pipe. The top is aluminum mesh and heavy foil hat from a Micheal’s Crafts. It was glued together with Loctite 5 min. metal epoxy.
