Title: PS Glen Sannox - Plans and drawings - help please
Post by: Snowwolf on May 04, 2007, 07:51:33 PM

Dear all

I am about to embark on a steam powered PS Glen Sannox and am sourcing what drawings I can from the Mitchal Library and other sources.  

From forum history, I see that there could be a lot of other information available through paddleducks members, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would be happy to pay for any copying and postage involved.

Many thanks

Glen Sannox is my favourite paddler David - So I'd certainly be interested in your build. I hope to build my own in the next year or so...

I have a copy of the plans from the Mitchell library, but they are very faint, and I doubt they could be copied.

Apart from that, I also have a copy of a series of articles printed in "Model Ships and Power Boats" in 1951, on building a model at 1:48 scale. These also include hull cross sections which aren't included on the drawings from the Mitchell library.  I could scan those and send them via email if your inbox is a reasonable size?

Scanned images from the "Model Ships and Power Boats" magazine article are being sent now David....
