Title: Okie requests permission to board
Post by: rdutnell on August 07, 2013, 08:43:02 AM

Greetings Everybody!

I just found out about this site, and it is top notch!  There is some awesome restoration/preservation work going on out there and my hat's off to hall of you!

My interest, currently, is Batfish.  The only ship I have ever been on is Batfish last week.  I joined this forum because I recently have gotten into building models using CAD and 3D printing and am currently playing with Batfish.  I am posting the process on SubCommittee.com.

The CAD model is probably 75% complete at this point, but I still have a long way to go.  Since I know very little about ships, I thought I would get input from people with way more knowledge on the subject than me.

Here is the parts diagram I have created for my model.

I will post more information on the Batfish, so rather than double post, I refer you to that site.

CHEERS!!!
