Titanic Dio: adding simulated water depth?
Posted by oldhooker on Wednesday, May 18, 2005 10:47 AM
Just an idea...

I'm going to try an idea on my Titanic dio, of making some of the interior lights visible beneath the water level.... instead of taking up half the page explaining it, I've illustrated my idea:


Here you can see how the forward section extends below the base.


And here's the way I intend on doing it. I'm going to paint the base a dark blue/green, but leave the Gel clear throughout.

Submitted for consideration & suggestions.

Take care,
Frank

Man! You have quite a project going-but yes lights would be still on under water until the water shorted out the dynamos.

Thanks guys... I hope this idea works out, as it would add a little more dimension to the display. If not, I'll just paint the water surface. Smile [:)]

Thanks again,
Take care,
Frank
