I haven't forgotten about this. In fact, I made a lot of progress the other day. Instead of measuring and calculating, I hit upon a great idea. I'm measuring and drawing it at 1:1000, one millimeter per meter. I have the top and bottom views done and started work on the aft view. I plan on doing the front and side views, also. I put a 100x100 meter box around the whole thing, which I will stretch-scale the whole thing up to a 312.5x312.5 meter box. That should enlarge the ship to the proper 1:3125 scale. I'll then adjust to round everythng off to nice even numbers. It sure beats trying to bounch back and forth to a calulator or Excel spreadsheet.
