Yes! You are a genius!!

Lots of potential there!

I'm not seeing it. Ironclads perhaps, but not subs. I'd use PVC pipe first, for the latter.

Why not?

There are subs and then there are SUBS . . . link Just kidding. But don't give up yet. You could always try starting with these curved pieces for the sides and then go from there: auction auction Plus this? auction Dan

For small (smuggler, etc) subs, you could always just buy a waterline kit of an actual submarine.

Or even a full kit of one of the baby subs.

Not sure I could hold on to any block stuff if my grandson found out about it. ;->= I assumed these were Star Wars pieces, and therefore, of greater value. I'm impressed they aren't 'dear'. I think they'd be smashing as waterline (early subs barely floated). And, even if I were to make whole subs out of PVC, which would be boring as just a tube, and high tech at perfectly round, These still look useful for decking, though I'd want to cover in plastic mesh or similar. Thanks, Dan! Doug
