Tower Base

24/8/07

I sketched out this part of the plans with my own dimensions as I’m working with half imperial measurements and half metric.  This is because the plans are US Imperial measurements but as we are in Europe, we work in metric, so I could not get plate to imperial measurements. 

So, the diameters of all the parts I ordered are imperial as per the plans as I was able to order that, but the thicknesses are in metric as near as I could get. 

So for example, the main hull should be 1/4 inch, but its actually 6mm as I could not get 1/4 inch plate.

 

Anyway, you can see that the tower base must protrude 83mm from the OD of the hull.
