    Guys,
    I have plans for the Gearing Class Destroyer, But its Not in the 96 scale, its in the 144th scale and I'm not sure how to up the plans to that scale, and all that! She's on my list to build! But not until I get Doria up and Running!!

    Nikki, you take them to a copy shop that can handle that size of paper and have them enlarge it. But instead of thinking about other ships, you should concentrate on the ones you have already. You should wait until after your AD & LST are running, to think about other ships, otherwise you will never get the ones you do have finished.

    Just my two pence.

    Tell the copy shop that you want it enlarged 150%.

    I seem to remember you making a list on the OAF site that was a lot larger than that. Its okay, I want to build some of those ships too, going to work on what I have first though, and maybe build an r/c tank.

    If you want a Yamato, build a 1/350 scale model of it.

    Chase,
    I know!!! But The Reason I'm asking about Upping the plans is, From what my friend Jeff said, it would be easyer to build her, in the 96th, scale boat!!! But like i said, I"m Going to wait til, I have the money and the time!
