RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Restoring a Biber (or Beaver) midget submarine



Brent,

John Lambert, who is one of Britain's best-known and respected draftsmen,
specializing in Royal Navy Warships of Destroyer size and below (which
also includes submarines), has a web page you should check out:

http://www.lambert-plans.com/encom/ships_submarines.htm

Now, scroll down to you find the very last three items at the bottom of
the page. Here you will find the plans for the following midget
submarines:

GERMAN BIBER (BEAVER) ONE MAN SUBMARINE - 1944
Detailed GA drawings showing external and internal detail, sections etc.
A copy of a German GA drawing utilising Axis material gained from
recovering a unit sunk on operations in Bergen, Norway has been used to
add additional detail.
Two large sheets. Scale 1/4-in. per ft, 1 : 48. Drawn July 1995.

THE WELMAN MIDGET SUBMARINE of 1943
Detailed GA drawings showing external and internal detail, sections etc.
A copy of a German GA drawing utilising Axis material gained from
recovering a unit sunk on operations in Bergen, Norway has been used to
add additional detail.
Two large sheets. Scale 1/4-in. per ft, 1 : 48. Drawn July 1995.

THE 'SLEEPING BEAUTY' SUBMERGING CANOE - MARK II of 1944
A little known wartime development of a submersible canoe, used for
commando raids, beach units etc. Fully detailed but no hull lines.
One large sheet. Scale approx. 1 3/4-in. per ft, 1 : 6,85. Drawn July 1995.

About a year ago he helped me out during my research on the british
X-Craft midget submarine. His plans are sold at fair prices, and you will
find out how to contact him here:
