the bow stem & the forward part of the upper deck is still there as you can see it in that aerial view of the wreck. just behind the forward part of the upper deck to behind #2 main turret, that part of the deck has collapsed as far down as the 2nd deck.

Xanthar, have you tried printing the masts?

I've been meaning to give them a try on my resin printer. Maybe this weekend.

Very Cool! I would love to see the results

I needed to make bollards for the Arizona. I made a few from scratch and toyed with the idea of casting duplicates, but I decided to just make them assembly line style. Here is my first attempt at making a prototype.

Now I just got to get out the glue and start gluin'

Just out of curiosity, since I’m going to try to make bollards as well…what diameter tube/rod are you using?

 

[Davidp]

according to Pennsylvania's plans, they are 21" in diameter so at 1/429 scale would be 1.24mm in diameter.
