Can I have a little help? I'm trying to download plans for the Clemenceau and Gascoigne. Unfortunately it's loading as a quicktime video, not an image, so I cannot save any of it. Would somebody be willing to download the plans and email them to me? http://www.servicehistorique.sga.defense.gouv.fr/02fonds-collections/banquedocuments/planbato/planbato/Plans/planbato.php?id=489
The accumulated tif files for the Clemenceau are fairly hefty, a little too hefty for emailing, and I'm not inclined to sift through them tonight to find only the useful ones. However, since I have already completed my site-rip, I will upload the whole mess of Clemenceau tif files in a zip for you to some storage I have. Will post the link once the file finishes uploading. If you have more you want let me know.
It comes up as unavailable Karl - right click the plans and do 'Save target as...' no problems that way.
Ugh. Interesting. Either they suspended my account for hosting a 37mb zip file, or i happened to upload that on the last day of the hosting contract which we forgot to renew... Edit: Was the hosting contract. Fixed.
For those who are interested in French ships... I am getting a new boat shop and intend to spend the fall setting it up. This winter I plan to build a mold for the Algerie cruiser. Assuming that goes well, I plan to build a mold for the Provence the following year. I will probably be open to requests for other French hulls after that. I found probably a 4x8 worth of fine grain 1/4 plywood scraps at a yard sale for $4. Looks like material for cross sections to me The shop is not connected to the house and will be insulated and heated so I can do fiberglass work during the winter. I will probably also open the shop up on a monthly basis for build sessions. (near Olympia, WA)
Phil That is great news. The Algerie is my favorite French cruiser. I would also like to build a Provence at some point. Keep us posted. Mikey
