Work is slow but I am still plodding along slowly.

Over the last few weeks I have add a lot of new detail to my G7es/T5 model.

Nice finish. Obviously still several details to be added, but I just want to comment on two things that struck me initially:
Number and placement of the topside joining screws (ref attached photos of the G7es(TV) on display in U-505), and the "Salamander" coil for the warhead igniter (ref detail from a german drawing showing a vertical cut: For measuring-reference: The steel in the hull of the gyroscope compartment is 3 mm thick).

I don't remember if I've posted these before, but just in case you need to adjust some details for the tailsection and propellers:

Hi Islandern
Sorry about the late rely.
I have not been working on the Torpedo research for the last few years, as I wanted to finish my research on the exhaust system. I was hoping to present my finding last year but I have PC problems and was not able to do what I wanted. I hoping to present my finding before March, if my problems are fixed with my PC.
