USS Merrimack 1855 [COMPLETED BUILD]

Great Model, Well done.

I'm part way through building a pair of models, the CSS Virginia and USS Monitor and now have the idea to build a model of the USS Merrimack to complete the set. Could you tell me where you obtained the plans for the Merrimack, I've had no luck finding them.

Many thanks and well done

I contacted the National Archives, They sent me these. The cut away I got on line. The Archives "lost" her spar deck plan so I used the Minnesota's and borrowed from model photos of the Wabash. You can find many good photos of the Wabash and models of her on line. I made my stern quarter gallery's from photos of the Wabash. Also her bow decorations. I think I can supply you with more if you specify what you need.
