Warship and Naval Weapons plans

18-06-2004

I have been producing detailed warship and weapons plans for over 30 years. They are redrawn from original material. I am trying to find drawings of WW II Searchlights. Any ideas of Archives, Museums etc, that might hold such an animal?
Have many modellers used my drawings? Your thoughts please.

Your plans ,are they published in magazines or advertised ? Can you post a sample? Re info on searchlights..try Dave Wooley of Model Boats Magazine.

Certainly been using several of your plans John, especially those of the corvettes.

I know you know the place well, but can't the Explosion's museum in Gosport help you in your search?

Best regards for the future by the way.

Francis Searchlight data books or maintenance and parts lists usually have some. I have got some parts in my archive, but I think mainly for special bolts etc.
