Have finely made a start on the starboard side interior furniture, nearly finished, took a bit to get started, would of being nice if I had proper plans to goby instead of just using pics, do have a floor plan rest is guessed, working out ok .

Pic one the first interior furniture starboard side , flat area close to the star case is the access door to outside, I still have to cut that out , will see more in the last pic of that doo, not sure what those doors are called, have to drill a hole through and glue in clear plastic like a port hole. I still have to cut out the three cupboard door on is First Aid




Second pic , of the real interior and third pic of the outside shelving









Final pic of where I am working and have finished can more onto the middle deck divider wall, more progress work tomorrow night should finish that area, need to office chairs is HO scale, any ideas. Tony

Nice progress on the interior......not having to work from plans allows you a little room to use your creative talents to build it even better! :thumb2: Rick H.

Railroad furniture in HO scale should get you what you want. Walthers, Reynaulds, etc. PaulE

Hi Rick, many thanks how are you going yeah agree , have finely finished the interior furniture starboard side at long last, still have a set of doors to mark out and fit, that can wait till later, swing to the port side furniture be a bit harder. I am on a high because I decided to check the measurements mainly the height , and to my surprise got it right ,my work deck is 30 inches high works out 8 mm to scale, pretty happy there.
Take care Tony

Hi PaulE I have being looking on eBay come across some guy that prints out 3/D model office chairs to scale, not quite right,, I am on the search for a F/7,8,9 class cabs as the seats are what I am looking for. Tony

[ozdell]

At long last the starboard interior furniture is nearly finished, want to switch over the port side, being a lot harder, like a challenge

Second last and last pic looking at that access door to the bridge deck I will drill a hole and ad on the outside a sheet of clear plastic and other side what is the wheel house, at least it be a lot easier to the older ships, final pic, ,my door wont open too much work.
