Well done... but that's the funnels, not the hull...

Clue: It was quite a few
So you DID mean the whole thing?

No, like I said... the HULL, not the superstructure. The funnels aren't normally on the hull (at least, not that can be seen externally of course!)

What is your source? How much do you regard as "whistles" of the arrangement?

Some figures: From base base of the branch to top of the center dome: 4 feet 2inch
Width across the outer bells: 3 feet 6 inch
Diameters of the 3 bells: 9 15 and 12 inches.
But I have not found any measurement of the bells and there were 3 different sizes.

Ah okay. I disagree with his measurements but you can document your claim, I cannot find anything about it.

But what is on his photo is 4 feet 2 inches high.

Okay.

Next question: If put up vertically, what would be the heights of the four funnels? (Remember: their heights vary)
