The Supermodels' design
The Supermodels plan to mount all their fire appliance components onto a trailer. They will connect a tank, pump, engine and water cannon. The whole ensemble will be towed by a scrappy vehicle. The first priority is a high-pressure, high-volume pump. Enthusiastically, the team decide to make a centrifugal pump from scratch.
