Brian,
My apologies. As I was typing that response I decided it would be
appropriate to save it until the future when I have something complete to share,
but inappropriate to insert it into a discussion of your mock up.
Unfortunately I hit "Send" instead of "Save." My faux pas.
Best regards,
Jim

Hi Brian,
That's a pretty impressive mock up. Don't think I even want to post
pics of mine after seeing yours.
I'm taking four pine 2"x12"s three feet long, setting them on edge
arranged like floor joists, and cutting a 30" radius in each one. They
are then notched out around the radius to accept 1x2 longerons. I then
attach sheets of 4'x8' sheets of Formica laminate to form the hull.

Hi All,
I uploaded some pics of my mock up of my pressure hull. It is sitting
on a trailer in my garage. The same way it will be and on the
same trailer as when I get the actual pressure hull. ( Good
idea to commendeer that space before the wife does !!) Also added a
picture of my newly aquired diesel engine under a seperate catagory.
mock up:
if that link doesn't work go to the projects page under Brian Cox
