Your copeland ohio report

[SSBN659]

David, your report showed how to use thin strips of blue masking tape and filler to create a clean break line where the superstructure meets the hull at the bow and stern. I'm trying to find this report and having no luck. Can you point me in the right direction?

Hi Bill,

That job was done in the time before I went digital with the camera work, and the only record I have is that poor quality 8mm video tape now seen on YouTube.

Let me know what specifics of the technique you need to know and I'll coble up some in-file shots of the process and will work up a narrative for you.

David,

Here's what I've done so far but I'm not happy with it. The intersection of the superstructure with the hull is not a nice clean line as I recall you did with the OHIO.

OK, I went to You Tube and searched on Copeland and Ohio. "Ohio 10 Model Submarine Build Define Hull & Deck" did a good job showing me what I'm looking for.
