Title: clothes shop sub
Post by: sheerline on February 23, 2008, 09:41:28 pm
Spotted this 'typeV11' display hanging in a clothes shop in Nuremburg last week. Someone has gone to a lot of trouble to make it and the whole thing appeared to be made out of aluminium. It's a pity they hadn't kept the thing properly arranged on its wires as one of the ballast tanks was going a.w.o.l but even so, it made for a very different kind of shop display. A curious choice but very novel.

Yep, no problem.. I will start drawing it up now....I thnk we could start with a 40 gallon drum for the ballast tank and I now.  think I have now found a use for that old compressor out in the garage! Radio might be a problem so perhaps I should just fit you a seat and some contols in the dive module!! O0 :D

Than's what I like about you Chris always the optomist.

I will call on you to collect it next week. Should give you plenty of time but make sure that you finish my C/T for my V11 first.  O0 8)
