That's why they invented power tools.

They won't fit "straight from the box". The thickness of the pressure hull castings is such that they will protrude up above the level of the deck.. They need some serious thinning down before they will sit low enough for the deck to be added, but fortunately the castings are robust enough to allow a fair bit of chopping to the underside. Its just "do-able" but quite a bit of work.

They better. I've got all three on order. For almost $150, THEY WILL FIT!! One way or another. Period

Are you going to put this inside the kit? If so, how do you plan to view it? I would go with a cutaway covered with a thin piece of clear styrene. When you finish it, go over to the Armorama web site and post the picture in the model ships forum. It would be really nice to see this done.

Does anyone know if Yankee Models upper pressure hull will fit along
with CMK's command/torpedo/engine rooms?
Also, is CMK's engine room available? I got the other 2 from Squadron already.
