Hi MBW,s Tinplate clockwork torpedo/submarine propulsion is twin coaxial contra rotating props totally scratch built handmade. its about half way through the build at the moment just doing the clockwork ballast timer and compressed air system. Cant wait to chuck it in the oggin.

Hi, not sure if my hobby is of interest but it keeps me happy. I build tinplate clockwork submarines and boats from recycled tins and busted clocks. They sail and dive its a million miles from all the modern stuff but great fun. Have a look at www.mclarenclockworksubmarines.com
cheers neil.

A WWII British S-class submarine by Darnell. it is being restored at present and will be sailed at the Hayling island Model Boat Club lake.

Not your typical submarine but certainly an unusual semI submersible. Scratch built by fellow club member Brian Clewes this is a most striking looking vessel. Fiberglass hull and moulded perspex window. Home built waterjet uses a large 900 (I think) brushed motor, water cooled speed controller and 14.4v LiPo. Looks really spectacular on the water and Brian is working on the ballast to enable the model to remain just submerged. Video to follow in due course.

Ahoy
