Title: CAD Model and Technical Drawings for the Typ VIIc U-Boat
Post by: Darkstar130 on 08 Mar , 2017, 17:34

General Information

---

I like to find plans and technical drawings and make CAD models out of them. I'm always on the lookout for info and I'll share whatever I have



Technical Drawings & Reference Material

---

This is a list of useful items and websites that contain either dimensions or technical drawings

• Planrolle: Uboottyp VII C (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/3763760032/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) (came folded on glossy paper, the shame. Still the best set of drawings I've found so far.)
• Vom Original zum Modell, Uboottyp VII C (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/3763760024/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) (has a smaller printed version of the plans found in the Planrolle, a few pictures of them being built, not much else.)
• U- Boottyp XXI (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/3763762183/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
• Geschichte des deutschen Ubootbaus (German Edition) (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/3763758003/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
• The U-boat: The Evolution and Technical History of German Submarines (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0870219669/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) (Has lots of information on shipyards and briefly talks about VIIc construction. No drawings. Lots of pictures on U-Boats being built.)

Interesting project.
I see that you're going quite deep on the detail level.
The first parts look great.

Which program are you using for this project?

I'm afraid I can't help you concerning your request in your first post. I only have the "Vom Original zum Modell" drawings...

Keep us posted.

Hi DerXL,


I'm using SolidWorks and MatLab.

Hi guys, It's been a while. Here's a few things.

Is no one interested in this? I'm after the plans. What I do is based on the dimensions. I have done lots of independent research in Archives and found original drawings of the ships plans. I'd be willing to trade if someone has other drawings.
