too small to really do accurately! But I think oversize ones are better than none, very personal I guess.

I think they were like skyscraper building rivets, quite large, but beyond that I have NO info. I would GUESS, if forced, about 1 inch/25mm head, maybe 3/4. Dougie probably knows!

I was also thinking about 30mm wide. In my drawing I have them at 27mm so far ;D The thing I would real like to know, what is the spacing between the rivets, I am thinking about 100mm.

Hi guys,

The rivets can be seen on this photo of U 228 below -



Going by the vertical line of rivets directly in front of the upper torpedo door, maybe the spacing between rivets is about 75mm to 80mm? Note the staggered double line of rivets along the stem.

Hope this photo helps.

Cheers,

Dougie

Sad news :'(

My engine is approximately 108 mm (real world) to small or 2.5 mm on my drawing at 1:43 scale ;D Will have to fix that tomorrow! Can not have the engine drawing 2.5 mm too small  ;)

I thought I would show you the steps I take while doing my drawing :) I want to add the pipes for the engine outlets.


The pipe outlets on the engine.


The plans.
After spending 6 hours looking at piping plans ::) I worked out the pipe layout for the two outlet pipe from the engine. The outlets (Green arrows) and the flow (Red arrows) to the valve and out into the two oil tanks (Orange arrows).


The finish drawing.
Then 2 hours to draw the pipes.

I know that these pictures are of poor quality, but I was wondering if anyone know that these words are (red arrows).

Thanks, Simon

Hi Dougie

In your Type VII modifications report on page 45 under 'Late UZO', do you have any more pictures of this later UZO? Or a better picture of the one in the report? As I would like to draw it for my U-Boat  :)

Thanks, Simon
