LTB; Bow planes mechanism suitable for 1:48 scale Type XXI, Oscar II, or similar.

Hi! I'm asking to see if there is some commercially available unit I could obtain and then adapt to work in a 1:48 scale US Skate class boat. The thing is really pretty, but it doesn't have its full character. I know at one time folks were making Doug Badgely hulls and Graupner had a 1:48 model they sold. I'm getting older and this hull is a challenge in the superstructure, as it is made of two stacked sections, with the planes cut-outs are in the upper one.

Anyway, if you have an idea about a unit, kit, Engle or Graupner part, or even an STL file, please let me know.

Thanks,

Bill
