While working on my deck of my U-boat I untaken a lot of research and ask a lot of questions and I wanted a way to say thanks everyone who help me. I learn a lot about deck layout arrangements for the VIIC/41, so I thought a good way to say thanks was to make a working drawing of the deck arrangements. This deck arrangements will not match the earlier boat but all the piping under the deck should be the same.
The PDF document contains several different layers to make viewing easier. These layers can be view all together or separately by selecting or deselecting layers within Adobe Reader. There are two versions, a full and lite version. The only different between the two is that I remain all the screw and bolts on the deck from the lite version (where are about 15,000 screw and bolts on the deck
) to help speed up the redrawing on older computer.
The drawing is in no way finish and need a lot more work on it. I want to add additional layers to it that include the Radio Aerial wires, Hand rails and a Lateral view. I am hope to post updates of the drawing when they are ready. The reason why I am put it on now, this that I would like some feedback on it.
You are welcome to download it and have a look. I only ask you one thing if some of you can post some feedback on it, as I would like to make it better and a useful modelling tool for future modeller.
Happy downloading
