For this build my father will be the Shipwrights. But as he builds this I'll be making two sets of templates so I can build the sister ships the uss United States and the Uss President from scratch and once I get the piece's made I'll start my own build logs for those in scratch build log section of this site

Thanks Coleman and Dan,
My father is a natural inventer/engineer, and we have a blast with the little stuff like that you are right it is more of a science to us but it's the way we think we like to have our ships looking straight .i say we because ill be building two more hulls from this kit having made copies and templates of all of the parts before they get used
So I can make her sister ships as well from scratch

Buick nut got a reaction from mtaylor in Question about stoves and how the rotisserie worked
It is very plausible that it could work have you ever heard of a Venturi? It more like the smokestack and hood upside down the hotter the exhaust is the faster it will rush past the fan blades turning them and in turning what is ever on the end of the shaft, oh BTW if you don't know what a Venturi is it basically was on most if not all cars at one time before fuel injectors were invented so yes I very much could if not did work at one time

Buick nut reacted to wq3296 in Question about stoves and how the rotisserie worked
Greetings Buick...
By all means - a venturi is nothing more than a specifically shaped constriction in a duct, pipe, etc. that reduces the cross sectional area. Accordingly, the velocity of any gas or liquid of a given volume will increase as it passes through a venturi. This is why a carburetor works. Basically, the venturies in the carb take atmospheric pressure and increases its velocity to draw fuel into the air stream before entering the engine's intake system. Properly designed fireplaces and stoves incorporate exhaust gas velocity enhancement features.
