Nice work on the structure of the storage bay Daniel. What is the "railway track" on the deck used for, (at least it looks like a set of tracks)



Thank you Julian, yes is a rail. In the rectangular back gratings (4), they were stores of torpedoes. They were mounted in car and taken by the rail up to the hatch of re load. they were mounting a tripod with pulleys. Hard and dangerous work realized in surface. in general load in the night. I had to remove the assembly of the flak of 105 and make the space clean for 4 containers of the lifeboats ....... near challenge!!!

Daniel



That must have been a fun job Daniel, in the dark on a small deck with waves coming over all the time. Just like anchor handling in wintertime

That is fantastic work Daniel, looks great and will be even more impressive when painted. I am glad you didn't post the photos of you testing your snorkel in the bath though

Hi Daniel, the work is amazing. One thing I would like to know is how much speed the boat lost with all that piping and the snorkel?
I would estimate a good 2 knots.
Don't invite everybody to your pool, I am sure your rather scantily clothed neighbor wouldn't appreciate a crowded pool. She would appear to the sort of shipping expert who appreciates someone with knowledge of, er ............ , um................ Ah , good wines
For the big B build? Well, my friend, there are an awful lot of Bismark's in 1/200th scale but I have seen no 1/200th Tirpitz's.
There is also only one person I can think of who could do the conversion. Now let think, what is his name er, Mosca, Misca, Moscatelli
By the way, what is the approximately 1 meter of fresh meat you have on your barbecue? Looks interesting

You have reason .... all the tests remain suspended in the swimming pool of my neighbor!!

Well, Im sorry about the great distance between Holland and Uruguay!! I would like to be able to share a barbecue with you.....



Actually some time ago that I have the idea of doing the "Queen of the North ".... but I come avoiding for his complexity. But of to little I come improving ... jejeje Surely it is the first one of the Tirpitz but not the only one .. jejeje This thanks to a friend who me sent the blue prints!!!!

For You master

Hello Daniel, that's some more great work. Have you heard about the Type VIIC in 1/48th scale that's coming?



Saw this on another site, it measures about 55 inches long! I'd love to see what you could do with this beast. It was originally posted on Freetime Hobby's website. Al
