Type VII hull

Kirt: (Shamrock)

When you do your type VII, open the hull up a little more. Mine is to tight. I have to spread the hull for and aft when shoving the S/D in. IT's really a pain. Plus trying to get it around the foam ballast. I think I'll open the hull further on the next one (type VII/41). More like David M. does on his Gato video. Also open the hull a little further to the stern, another inch.

Order a fittings kit now.

When you do your type VII, open the hull up a little more. Mine is to tight. I have to spend the hull for and aft when shoving the S/D in. IT's really a pain. Plus trying to get it around the foam ballast. I think I'll open the hull further on the next one (type VII/41). More like David M. does on his Gato video.

I'm finalizing the method of accessing the deck to get to the SD. I've pretty much settled on making the entire deck (except a short bow section) removable, holding it in place with a system of cross-braces (transverse frames) and magnets. Yes, you have to spread the hull open to get the SD in and out.

type VII video

David:

Sorry I spelled 'spread' wrong earlier but you obviously you got the idea.

Will you make a video on the type VII build like the Gato?

Not if I have anything to do with it. Far too much work, and the cutting floor ends up with a ton of censored film. Hilarious goings on in the cave, that only I am privy to. I'm saving you all from His Nastiness!

I anticipate the VII will be in the form of the Cabal Reports, but mingled with the Revell Instructions. There are a couple of articles already loaded to the download section .

I have been viewing the Moebious Seaview DVD set, that cave is pretty nasty inside, and the one doing all the talking, well...

I have a Revell Type VII/41 stored away awaiting a fittings kit before I tackle it. I too would love to see his holiness do a build on this kit. I understand the work that must go into producing a DVD set. I am sure the cave dweller has enouff on his plate to keep him in there a while.

Anyway, I enjoy watching Dave build. Keep up the great work guys :)
