This model kit represents the funnel of USS Arizona BB-39 as the ship appeared from 1936 to the ship's destruction at Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941. This is a multi-part kit. These parts were designed for a tight fit. 3D-printed plastic is more brittle than polystyrene kit parts. If necessary, trim parts to fit rather than force them.

Unlike other aftermarket funnels, this model represents the funnel after it's height was raised by 6 feet during a 1936 refit which helped better direct boiler exhaust gasses away from the bridge.

Features:
overall dimensions and features scaled from official US Navy construction drawings of the real funnel for maximum accuracy.
accurate elliptical shape.
accurately shaped steam pipes and incinerator exhausts.
accurately shaped machinegun platforms and splinter shields.
separate machinegun platform permits easier access to, and interior painting of, the searchlight control platforms straddling the funnel.
interior and exterior searchlight control station supports.
searchlight control station and machinegun platform open access hatches.
open smoke pipe with correct interior "bend", hollow all the way through.
accurate exterior rivet and reinforcing strap detail.
steam whistles.
incinerator exhaust pipe with accurate cap.
galley exhaust pipes with accurate caps.
funnel cap grille.
funnel cap cutout for vertical ladder (ladder not included).
