      Image is small.....I cannot see details, but I am sure it looks fantastic.
      If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

                            Very good work here, the add on from Eduard, RCSubs are such nice parts to work with. I have the same setup and hope to tackle a build myself, you have given me many of Great Detailing extras for my boat I will endeavour to copy into my boat!!
