Hi all, thanks for all your info which has been very helpful. I do intend to build a working model for display only. My heart is telling me to build the 5" but my head is saying 3.1/2" so I will (I think) be buying the 3.1/2" drawings and see how I get on, there will be a plan B if it all goes wrong.

Regards

Clive
