Bitter cold windy Sunday in SW Ontario - -13 celsius, that's 10 farenheit. Sideways blowing snow & nasty ice topped roads.
So I stayed in and completed the AirWhee DeLuxe Towers and the Hanging Hose Arch Gardens.

AirWay Rooftop Penthouse is 6 feet up & 48" wide, while the adjoining DeLuxe Tower is 24" wide & just shy of 10.5 feet.

Manuals Accessories are yet to be fully arranged for ready access but here's room on the lower floors for 9 more cylinders. Five are reserved for the GE AVT's, the Filtex and two Monitors.

Prior to Hose relocation

This was fun to do and long overdue. happy with the results...on to the Uprights...

Incidently, The Deluxious Pink Sky Tower is assembled from four 3-tier 30"h x 24"w x 14"d wire frame units from Canadian Tire (PRC) @ $29 ea. Each one comes with 2 extra screw-in pipe joiners...buy two and make one unit 60" high. Buy two more and climb to 10 feet. The screw together pipes are rigid as solid pipe and the unit stands straight, leveled and firm. Naturally tho', both towers are secured to the wall studs 'cause I don't have STOOPID tattooed across my forehead.

Holy Cow!!!!

Dave!! I see no fewer than eighty-seven LX's alone!!!! That's just amazing!!! And you refer to them as floors. That's appropriate as soon, you will need an elevator. Fantastic, keep "UP" the great work!!! BTW, what are those two circular shaped objects there in the basement?
 
Wow very high.. I expected to see little Felix perched up there somewhere. Poor Ben was hunting all over the house looking for Felix after you left the other day LOL
 
Rick, in the basement we have the jet engine afterburner noz

Ok, maybe not but that's what they remind me of. I have a 9 x 12" hot air furnace grate in the floor. Didn't seem like a good idea to let the hot air blow up into the climate controlled Vac floors, so I ganged together two 90 degree floor register ducts gasketed over the opening, directing the airflow out into the room. Works like a charm. I'd really like to put some free-wheeling turbine fans in the 6"d outlets. LOL...and I probably will now they are viewable.
 
Dave, I love your setup!! Very creative. One question, in the first picture what are those two items on the very bottom of the shelves on the left hand side? Terry
 
As for Felix Furby, Pete...

Since he had his needle sharp baby claws clipped on Thursday he's having to discover inventive new ways to surmount things. Like Leap and Land rather than claw his way to the Top, never a wise career move anyway. The uncomfortable open wire shelves and slippery chrome poles discourage such antics.
 
My compliments to the engineer

and contractor of this high rise for remembering to install the cylindrical, directional controlled velocity air handlers on the lower floor. All this while still maintaining a tight budget. My hats off to him/them for using round ducts rather than square, as it is easier to move air through them.

If this were not a quality job, ya woulda got a piece a cardboard taped to the register.

OH MY GOODNESS!

Well Dave you sure did a great job on that tower and room. Your lucky to have such nice tall ceilings in your older home. That helps. You have an outstanding collection and it's nice to see it properly displayed. No matter how many vacuums a person has. We should all try and keep them organized, neat and clean. I hate seeing vacuums just thrown around Willy-Nilly or in a heap! Keep up the good work my friend. Paul
