USS Oregon

[Mike Bischoff]

I'm starting the old Glencoe model of the USS Oregon (I live in Portland Oregon). I have most of the accessories to produce a pretty good example when finished. My biggest problem is obtaining a rigging diagram (almost impossible to date). I sent a message to one of your members who documented his construction of the USS Oregon and was impressed to say-the-least. PLEASE, I so-need a rigging diagram, so she looks seaworthy.
Respectfully,
Mike

First of all a warm welcome here on board of our forum.
You are looking for the BB3, or?

Was there big difference between the Oregon and the other ships from the same class?
Maybe you can also search for the Indiana and Massachusetts .......

Some help can be also the existing photos of the real ships

Navsource.org has lots of pictures and drawings of just about any US Navy ship- many of them have clear to fuzzy images of rigging configurations. And check out previously built models to see what looks plausible.
