        Great! I didn't realize you had finished painting it.
        It really looks good in the display case.
        Thanks for the pictures.

          Nice Build Jim!

          Perhaps we should make a slide show of these photos and put them on Youtube?
          Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

                Go to youtube.com and caswellsubs



                The resolution isn't wonderful, but it get the idea over. They can view the higher resolution photos on the web page.

                    Thank you very much Mike,

                    for posting this on youtube . I think it shows a good idea to people how the submarine is built by using Caswell inc products and designer David merriman, It looks great much apreciated. I attached a link that takes you straight to the video . It seems the one you posted mike, does not go to it, says video has been moved .
                    but this one will. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1gCEPSoqPA

                        Jim:

                        Thanks for posting the Gato build in detail. I'm a newbie and seeing what you did helps me realize what I've gotten into. It's alot more than I thought.

                            My Gato Submarine is up for sale!

                            So i can build another one !

                            this one with a different type of aproach big time. This time the water line will not be cut have different plains. plus this bad boy will have the torpedo system. Hopfully the system will be up for sale at that time, i purchase another one,
                            It should sell sooner or later. You surely can not just go out to a store and pick one up thats for sure, you got to build her.

                            Cheers

                            Note to David M how is the progress with the torpedo system i have not herd from you in a while, i would like to hear from you on my thread please .
