Gateway Forest Products in Ketchikan Alaska
Gateway Forest Products in Ketchikan Alaska is another Alaskan dock facility for floatplanes. While that plant at Ketchikan does exist in reality, I modeled it from an existing plant in Montana, where I pulled veneer off the green chain many years ago. I left the loading doors open along the dockside of the plant, which allows good interior views of all the machinery. The interior is brightly night lighted, and all of the major aspects of plywood manufacture in a typical plant are there, right down to the interiors of the restrooms. By Dave Erickson. 1.1MB
