     Ok,   how is this,   I have a finished trumpeter England De.  I have a 350 scale type 9 u boat,   The only one I have found in forever.   I have 10 gallons of cable protector resin,  clear green in color.   whet I NOW plan to do is sink the type 9 up to the tip top of the raised periscope, in firing position.    I will then put the England back on the shelf in my back room...............comments?

LoL!

Might work.

I'd test the resin on something first; and whether it attacked the plex or acrylic case materials.

 

U-boot long engagement range will be about 8000 yards.  That's 24,000 feet; divide that by 700, and you get 34' on my calculator, after rounding the quarter foot off.  So, on the shelf in the other room is not far off <G>

Would be kind of cool to have a pin-hole video placed above the sub display showing the DE in a sort of "periscope eye view."  Not real exciting video, but cool to see.
