Thanks, I assume then they are on both sides. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Those are limber holes for the free flood area around the vls tubes we call the bath tub.

Finally got some red primer on the underside to check my work. Now layout of the topside details begins and I'll have some questions.


The first one is what are these openings?

One final post for today. Don't want to push my luck.

Two medium sized uploads worked. These show how I drilled out the bow underside to insert the brass tubes which were secured in baking soda and CA glue. The photo in my previous post shows where I used Evercoat filler and Bondo glazing putty.

Trying two photos.

[SSBN659]

Testing the site to see if will take my photo.

[JHapprich]

Nope, no timeout. Odd

[SSBN659]

Trying again to post.

Same here....seems the forum software has been updated and now is a bit itch about posting more than one photo

There's more to it than that, Doctor. I post a grunch of photos in a single post and don't have any such roadblocks in front of me. However, I think there is a time-limit that might kick in if your writing of the post takes too long? Don't know for sure, but that's the only thing that has held a post of mine in limbo till Bob unlocks the cell door.

I posted 6 photos yesterday but they show up as Unapproved and I don't know why. They show up only when I log in and I can't edit them. Anybody have a suggestion?

I have some data, however I am not at home at the moment and won't be back there until Wednesday at a minimum. But in general the anchor looks.more like the profile of a propane tank.

[SSBN659]

Thanks SubiCman. Do you have something that shows the correct shape for the anchor?

1 is anchor, wrong shape tho, 2 is secondary propulsion skid and 3 is a flood grate on said skid
