While waiting for my CKD kit to arrive from South Africa I decided to build two
models using the plans. I photo copied the bulkhead plans and reduced them down
to a workable size. It seems that the scale works out to around 13:1.

The cut out balsa bulkheads, with the 2nd set ready to cut. |

This is the 1st one and has interior details and water balast tanks. |

The cutout balsa bulkheads were fragile and I had some trouble keeping them aligned. |

The 2nd one I made the bulkheads soild & used a couple of 2x4's for a strong back. |
