Hello Rickstef,
Thank you very much for that.
I was not aware of these.
See and ye shall find - ask and ye shall be given!
(I am going to try and make some Paravanes and Orepesa Floats in due course.)
Hello Tex,
Thanks. Yes, shrinkage would be a factor but could it be be controlled by mixture thickness? and I think that for the common scales of warship models any shrinkage could be rectified by an extra coat or two of paint.
Hello EvilT,
Thanks. Maybe you could suggest to your relative to mention this topic to the chap that is making small items from a 3D printer?
It could be feasible and maybe a possible business opening for him.
Hello, JG,
Thanks for that. I must have a look at this thread.

Another suggestion - Card embossing tool to form this type of water-tight door?
Other Paper Products-type-1-wt-doors.jpg
(The door - note the rounded corners - is 16mm x 7mm while the strengthening squares are 4mm x 3mm. )

Now back to the Kormoran!
