Hi, I have also tried to get in Contact with Don without being able to reach him despite using his e-mail at Loyalhanna and leaving phone messages (they do not answer). However maybe their flu is worse than mine. They probably return soon (i hope).Comment

Delighted. E-mail on its way.Dave I would welcome your help. Let me finish the Golf and the Thresher I am working on first. Send me an email at timcobb55@yahoo.com and I will send the file i have with all the drawings. Get a couple of ex bubble heads together on a boat build would be interesting.

Guys I have given Don email addresses to all you guys that inquired about a kit several times. Today I will email him and tear him a new one. I have to look for his phone number. He said I could post his number so let me exercise my coffee index finger just like the master chief's us to and I will see what I can do on that number. Dave I am gong to make a run to Staples and enlarge the Victor drawingsComment

Excellent. Give me the hub diameter on that beast (to 1/72) and I'll get started on the tandem screws. By the by, I've completed a S5W type propeller to 1/72nd scale and am 80% done with a 1/72 THRESHER/PERMIT (original, small) sail. Would either/both be useful to you as tooling? Knowing you're working on a 1/72 THRESHER/PERMIT kit.Guys I have given Don email addresses to all you guys that inquired about a kit several times. Today I will email him and tear him a new one.

Here are the pics of the screw. If it is useful to you let me know and I can mail it to you. And for all the guys who didn't serve on nuke boats a S5W is a nuke reactor. It stands for Submarine, fifth generation, Westinghouse. Here is a pic also of a brushless counter rotating motor that would be perfect for Victor.3 PhotosComment

Not counter-rotating. Two identical wheels on the same shaft, turning the same direction. Combat Models. John Rucks? No thanks, his work was terrible.

Actually I built one of the Alfa hulls and the guy used Deep Sea Designs plans. I laid the hull on the plans and it was dead on. The rest of the parts like sail, stern planes and rudders were off so I made new ones. My email is timcobb55@yahoo.comComment
