About this model
A steel drum painted dull blue, with a closed lid and wear on the rims. It is about 2 ft across and 3 ft tall. The blue paint has faded and chipped, showing bare steel at the edges. It is heavier and sturdier than a plastic drum and makes a reliable piece of cover. It suits docks, factory yards and roadside depots, especially when stacked with matching drums.
Scatter it with other drums in warehouses, docks and industrial yards. Steel drums make solid low cover. A row of them can wall off part of a room or form a barricade at a gate.
Ideas for the table
- Workers stack the drums to make a barricade before the attack.
- One drum in the row is heavier than it should be.
- A drum rolls off a loading platform and flattens a crate.
