VIIC/41 - Schematices drawing

[NZSnowman]

The winter is drawing nearly to the southern hemisphere, so I am winding down my U-boat research and drawings for another year. Thanks everyone for your help this year.

I can not wait to see your work finished.

Hi Gentlemen,


Simon, great work. I have got question - do you have any drawings or photos of this "dark-grey" UZO column part?
I mean the part with one large hand-wheel at one side and smaller knob at the other side.


Simon, long time ago we have discussed the construction of the torpedo tubes. Below is the photo:

that presents (I suppose, because I cannot be sure), the lower part of the MBT 5 (looking upward) with two outer torpedo tubes sections.
I guess, you will find it interesting.

Maciek, all the photos I have seen of the lower column are from here:

I have never seen any drawings of the lower column.

... I can not wait to see your work finished.

Perhaps next year I could be ready to present my drawings. I am doing a little test of my drawings for myself now.

Hi Snowman,


please enter an order for that book for me. Are you planing to publish the book by yourself and release it by Amazon?

Stunning work Simon. I'd be down for a copy of that book too please.
Hoping you'll start having a look at Type IX's too one day.
Cheers Bob.

I not sure how I will do it yet. Not sure what are my option yet.

I sent my test book away to the printer yesterday. Should get it back in 1 or 2 weeks. Cannot wait to see how it turn outs. When I get it back I will post some pictures of it.
