again awesome craftsmanship, very impressive with your research and your work with all the cupper and brass. Nice meachnism with the lock and release of the deck. regards Christian

@xrz100 Thanks Christian, the release mechanism was worth a try, this way i don't need tools to lock the upperpart.

It took me almost a year only for research on this boat, got enough material to finish the job

how do these submarines even work? What is the diving and surfacing mechanism?

[Knikebein]

@1airplane21 They work the same as their big bothers, let some water in (diving), blowing the water out (surfacing), all technical features will be explaned during this build, just be patient.

Exceptional as always! Congratulations on the ingenious solutions and reproduction.

@ssbn55 Thanks, there is still a lot of work to do, but the start is there.
