DeVilleroi's 1859 Salvage Sub - aka Alligator Junior

H.L. Hunley - Confederate submersible
I started this model having no idea how long it was going to take to build. Having never scratch built a hull before, it was an eye-opening experience! Every time I thought I was on my way, I would learn something new about the "real" HL Hunley.

The Irish ROV-er
While not a stereotypical radio controlled sub this camera equipped and totally home made ROV - was a personal challenge to build for $100. I found some plans in a book called "Build your own ROV" and altered them for my purposes.

U.S.S. Blueback
I was looking for a sub small enough to carry on board a plane and compact enough to run in a pool. The Blueback was the one I chose.
