Everything was great except the forward windows where sealed closed. I had to drill them out then file them in a square shape.
All of the parts I received were very well made. They came out of the print clean. But they didn’t fit the model. One almost looked like it was for a different kit like a German U-boat not a Gato. I ended up going with the kit parts because they fit, sadly.
Hello J. Patrick,
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, and I’m sorry to hear about the fitment issue you experienced.
These railings are specifically designed to fit our own 1/72 USS Gato conning tower, and they are not intended as direct replacements for parts from other manufacturers’ kits. When used with our conning tower, the fit is correct.
That said, I truly appreciate your kind words about the print quality, and I’m sorry the parts didn’t work for your particular build. If you’d like to discuss compatibility or possible adjustments for a specific kit in the future, feel free to reach out before ordering and I’ll be happy to advise.
Thank you again for your honest review.
Best regards,
Distefano 3D Team
