I'm building a submarine....or something that was supposed to be one,but the end result will probably be more like a cargo-ship.Anyway,it is/was an interesting little project.
Started out with my favourite Rohacell foam,then folded aluminium strips from old lighting fixtures around the ship,riveted them together,the upper part is an old piece of aluminium from an fishtank.To keep the shape I rivited more aluminium strips on it.
The commandotower is made out of two pieces of aluminium from a vintage radio.
The engine is a copper coil made from an old temperature gauge.Then there are some perforated pieces of aluminium rivited on the tower.
And started straight away on the next boat,the hull of which is made from ...yes,that material again.
