Its been about 12 years since Ive built a Bismarck from the ground up. I have 3/8" tape marking the weather deck for the windows. It seems like there isn't enough room for windows between the armor belt and the weather deck (it could just be me). I read the rules a couple times and I thought it said something about there has to be a minimum of 1/2" between ribs? Would this fall under that? Or should I make the deck 1/4"?
The deck rim should be 3/8” and the stringer for the armor belt will be 1/8,” there is no minimum spacing requirements, the armor belt just needs to be in the scale location (I.e. if you were making a hull you couldn’t move the armor belt to get more impenetrable area). The ribs spacing restrictions do not apply to deck rim or stringers
