- Is there any easy way to remove
the pieces from the cutout boards I am having a devil of a time
using an X-Acto knife to get the pieces removed?
- Just wondering if you
have a text only version to use in my shop as I
build next to Dumas's Plans?
- Where did you
find this stuff?
- Do you have a copy of the locator drawings?
- I would like to know
if ended up putting stabilizers on the hull? I found my model
very tipsy in the water.
Planking The Hul:
-
You
mentioned that you cut a hole in frame 6 for the forward gun,
but I don't see anything else about it?
- Do you have any pictures of the
Bow end of the hull before planking?
- How do you plank the bow of the
hull?
- Would it be easier to add balsa blocks at the bow and
carve them to shape?
- Do I glue the planks at the tip to form the bow?
- How is that straight edge of the bow established?
-After I start placing the planks above and below the sheer
knuckle, there is still a little area left above the knuckle but
not enough for a whole plank, what do I do?
-
How far up do I place the planks? Until it is level with the
deck or below level?
- I am a little confused on the bow area and how the planking
fits in along the keel?
- What really confuses
me is how far forward do I put the planks to form the bow?
Weapon Mounts:
-
I tried to find the Bofors 40mm
where did you get it?
- Where did you get the .50 cal machine guns?
- Where and how did you did you rig the servo and what kind of
linkage did you use to turn the mounts?
- Do you have a more detail and brighter picture of the 40mm
Bofors gun?
- I really need help with the assembly of the forward turret ie
T3, T4
Extra Details:
-
I'm not quite sure how you
rigged the servo to turn the radar?
- How fast does the RADAR rotate?
- How do you increase/decrease the speed of the RADAR unit?
- Where did you find the
oilite bearings that you used in the "A" struts?
- Chocks, you said you
casted your own after making a master. How in the world do you
cast your own parts?
Electrical:
-
Do you have a wiring plan on
how you linked all this together so I don't blow every bulb?
- What is a micro bulb
that you used for the flood lights?
- I'm also curious how you rigged the bulbs on the vertical
sections of the mast?
- From my research it looks like you have to put resistors in
for the lights?
