Image Description
On this model I wanted to have the MK 32 Torpedo bay doors visible. I first used the pictures I got from Sea Photo. I also used the arrangement plans I received from The Scale Shipyard and marked the location of the doors on the hull. I then transferred these measurements to 0.020 styrene. After making the doors in styrene and marking the fiberglass, I made cuts in the fiberglass to allow me to install the doors I had made from styrene. Because the total thickness of styrene ended up being only 0.040", I added reinforcement to the inside of the hull behind the styrene. |
