I was playing Necromunda earlier and got to thinking that if the soda can terrain included a single unit base and top set it would be perfect for the triangular piece with the hole in the center. I usually put either a soda or an Arizona Iced Tea can in the hole but it would sure snazz it up to have a base/lid unit for it. Just a thought - I know I would buy a few.

I'm not sure I follow you. What's the triangular piece with the hole in the center?

Necromunda's cardboard terrain (aka Industrial Battlefield terrain Set) has a piece that is shaped roughly like a triangle with a hole in it. I usually build the terrain as a single level and put either a soda or Arizona Iced Tea can in the punched out center hole. A single can base and topper would be a great terrain enhancement for that set up.  Damn my inability to take pix and post them online. Can anyone help me out?

That would be it - thank you sir. Sometimes I set them up as single levels and connect them with one of the bridges.

A single can tank, huh? I think we could do that. What does everyone else think?

Singles could be fun for all the can type stuff. I can see single can toppers working well especially for things like custom silos or a much more haphazzard refinery.

I wonder if they could make a connector-type single. So you could stack multiple cans easily. And maybe some steps or a ladder. Or connectors with platforms for placing figures.

I second the "connector" idea to stack say 2-3 12 ounce cans or 4-5 of the now popular half-size cans.

Also, a connector and base that would allow you to connect cans horizontally for a BIG pipeline.  Would be easy to model a damaged section - just crush and/or cut the can.  Make sizes to fit Pringle cans as well.

I would like to see that pipe line idea too.  What if you made pipe connectors and related items that would fit standard PVC pipes sizes?
