Scale: 1/700


Set includes 15 tubs.  Twin-gun 40mm Bofors mounts are not included.

This set of models represents the protective splinter shielding known as "gun tubs" fit to World War Two-era US Navy warships around 40mm Bofors quadruple-gun mounts.  Dimensions are scaled from typical 14' (4.27 m) diameter tubs with a shield height of 4'-3" (1.3 m).

Carefully cut away or clip away any unneeded sections.  3D-printed plastic is brittle.  Careful use of a very sharp hobby knife, "hot knife" or clippers is recommended.
 

Dimensions of each tub:

  • Inner Diameter = 5.49 mm
  • Outer Diameter = 6.09 mm
  • Height = 1.85 mm
  • Splinter shield and floor thickness = 0.3 mm

 

Please measure the width of your 40mm twin-gun Bofors mounts to ensure that they will fit inside these tubs.  Some vendors' mounts are known to be overscale, too large to fit.
