Not to get too excited - no major new discoveries here - but this is a refinement of what we had so far:


Click on Image for FULL-RESThe linked pic ("T3class178scale_PLANSfu.JPG") - not the above, but the "FULL-RES" one it links to - contains a scale-bar (numbered in inches) and embedded dpi, sized for exactly 1:178 scale (the one I've decided to target). So, at exactly the (52.735) dpi - or, "pixels/inch" - it specifies, you should be able to print out directly at 178-scale (on 3 standard-sized pages). Which you can verify/ensure, by comparing with a ruler directly on the printout scale bar.

I deleted the scale-bar from the (lower-resolution) pic above, to avoid possible confusion.

If printing/breaking the image over 3 pages may present a problem, then just print out the following - 1 page each - three segments:
LEFT , CENTER and RIGHTThese include lots of side-lap, for plenty of match-points.

But of course, you can print out either version at any scale desired - if you know the desired length, in inches, of the T(3) you want to build - and simply adjust the printout drawing until it matches that length (which I made sure to post, in the discussions of each option, and scales).

Due to some questions surrounding the top casing and sail in these drawings, I will very likely refine/update a drawing of these, in particular, using actual historical reference pics.

But, for now the above can (at least) get you started - exactly what I'm going to do!
