Hello
Can any one tell me where I can get a 1/220 scale ladder for my Submarine that I'm building . I need a ladder with the hand rails that comes from the rear gun platform behind the conningtower to the deck. I've tried to scratchbuild but no success.

Hi Shaun!

Sounds like a metal vertical work ladder. Have you tried visiting a model train supplier?

Hi
Might be worth a try, thanks .
The ladder is 1 that goes at an angle of about 45 degrees slope.
If not I've got the Telford model show in just over 2 weeks.

Hi Shaun

There's always:


Directly from http://nautilusmodels.com/ (scroll down till you find USS Lionfish Accessory Sets, after all those 1/72 Gato goodies)

Hope this helps and looking forward to meet you in Telford!
Cheers,
Rui

Hi Rui
Yeh they look a bit more like it, will check the link .
Telford I'm there all weekend. ( taking my PT174 for the show ). I'll propbably be wandering about most of the time. If not I'll probably be with the MAFVA HQ stand at sometime.
Hope to see you there.
