          Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

              I second that on the resin schnorkel head. Did it come from OTW?

              Thanks Dave

                      Most of the OTW cylinders are 11cm diameter- about 4 3/8".

                              Worked some more on the type XXIII. Started on detailing lower hull with torpedo doors, ladder detail to tower, fix joint seam with first coat, made pillow block for drive shaft.

                                  Nice! Whats the overall length of the OTW type 23?
                                  IT TAKES GREAT INTELLIGENCE TO FAKE SUCH STUPIDITY!

                                      I so like this boat, seems it is worth the extra compared to the 1/32 plastic kit, or is it, arrrgh
                                      Next time someone points out it takes 42 muscles to frown, point out it will only take 4 muscles to b1tch slap them if they tell you how mnay muscles you need to smile:pop

                                                          Got some more work done on the XXIII. Finished the rescue raft door, linkage for the rudder and work on the tower.
