    Here is what I did for pad locks on my RNLB Trent 1:12 scale. I used styrene strips 3mm x 2mm cut into small pieces 3mm long. And brass rods 0.80 mm dia. And with my pin drill set I drilled the holes to fit. It was too hard to drill brass, so styrene was easier.

    I'm looking for the older version. My model is at least 15 years old. So I committed to the older version.
    Again thank you

    I'm building a 47' MLB 1:16 scale and need some help. I'm looking for older versions of this boat. I need some photos of the inner and outer helm areas, showing counsels panels and such.
    Thank you for any help

    How do I determine motor size, and battery, for my coast guard MLB 47' ? It's 36.5 inches long, deep "V" , Dual prop. I Don't have the plans or instructions. It was one of " Coast Guard Models" kits 1:16 scale.
