Not really it did have four Brooks rifles and is a waterline ship the ram is at waterline ... :hmmm just wondering I could build it for the shipbuilders ribbon ... Because the Hunley had a device but not nessesarily a torpedo ... :idonno
The Hunley's device most certainly was a torpedo. Not in the terms we would use today but closer to the mines they use to call torpedoes back in 1860s. When Farragut commanded "Damn the torpedoes!" he was talking about contact mines.
Yes, you can do the Ironclad for the Shipbuilders, it's wide open with no end date.

Torpedoes have several meanings, Gerry. All of them emerged from the eel like fish called a torpedo ray. In early times like the American civil war they were designated as mines and later around the beginning of the 20th century is when they were automated and self propelled.

I'd be good for August or Sept. I think.
Not been feeling much motivation lately, but I think that's turning around.

Well the USS Texas BB-35 may take awhile, I choose that one trumpy 1/350 because it will be a long build for me since I have such a reverance for this grand lady, there is another, Texas that I found today, that also want to build ... It is a resin 1/192 kit ... The 1st Texas won't be here until Sept ... I found another one the other day and I will have to call about it tomorrow ... To see if I can get it from supplier .... :woohoo: :idonno :hmmm B)

Been a busy man! Have some renos on the go, going back to work the week after next and currently on vacation. Honestly, anytime the majority wants to start I'll be in. Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in because my summers are crazy at work!
I think we have it on the schedule.
