Hello everyone, I’m looking at building a Fuso for Fast-gun, but in the “as-built” 1915 configuration. I’ve seen drawings from The Battleship Fuso (Anatomy of the Ship), and you can see the original hull profile in the cross-sections, but I’m not sure if there are enough of those included to re-create the original hull – does anyone out there know for sure, or is anyone aware of a decent set of plans available?
The plans in The Battleship Fuso (AotS) are more then adequate to build the "as-built" 1915 configuration. There are 32 frames, some of which will be in the hard area at the bow & stern.
I can supply you with scans of Fuso's original plans if you need them.... just PM me your email address.
Thank you, PreDread! All the pieces of my cunning plan are falling into place: STEP ONE: Acquire plans - Check! STEP TWO: Download and master DELFTship...
