View Full Version : U boat schematic help.
Hi hunters.
in my continuing search for a u boat picture/schematic i have been told by by those in the know - that to have a picture of the size i want ie; 3feet by 2feet i would need to buy an original digital schematic of a u boat and then get it enlarged to the size i want. i have searched the net and come close a few times but can not find a web site or outlet that does such things.
i would like a type vii schematic - framed on the wall large enough to appreciate its beauty. im wondering if any enthusiasts out here in subsim could help me. i have actually got a 'photo' of a type vii schematic but getting it enlarged has proved impossible because of picture resolution.
many thanks

i have a couple of .jpg type 7 schematic pics, they're white on black, about 5mb each and come in at 8256X3000 resolution some a little smaller.
is this big enough?
i also have a IXd2 (very nice one) and one of a XXI and a XXIII
i'm sure i have more knocking around
yup, just came accross an absolute buttload of zipped pics 38mb total zipped size and there are a good few different tech diagrames, plan diagrams and even scans of original documents.
I don't know if the quality is as you like it to be, but this is the best I can do. I found it a couple of years ago through a link posted here. No clue however were from exactly.

Pisces, these look very interesting, i have downloaded them and will try them too, many thanks.:up:
i think those in the know said i need to get an original copy - digital schematic thingy. i know nothing about this stuff. the problem they said would be trying to get the image enlarged to the size i need and they thought a jpeg would not be good enough - low res. but i will take these images from you both onto a memory stick and give them a try. thanks again for the quick responce.
if i am succesful i will let you know

Ok, i'll need to get a filefront or rapidhsare account sorted and upload these as one big zip file.

Guten Tag, Meine Herren,
I'm not sure if those diagrams above are the same as these, but here's a link, if you're curious:
http://www.uboatarchive.net/U-570GeneralPlan.htm
That site also contains this page with even more internal schematics for the Fanatiker:

Mach's gut!
