    During WWII, Germany built 1,162 destructive "U-boats," which is short for the German word "Unterseeboot," or undersea boat.

          This must be the photo that coined the phrase Plumbers Nightmare.
          I have never seen so many valves in one place.

                      Nice dry-dock photo's. UB110.. looks like would make a fantastic model. I wonder if there is a plan for it somewhere.

                          At least that is where I found the photos, hopefully it is the same for you.
                          If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.
