Alec,

Thanks, I'll try it out at work, where we have a sheet metal shop and 
journeymen who've been there, done that. I still have to get the shaft 
married to the plane, but there's got to be a way. I'll skip the oil unless I 
get into weight problems. Ours just had weep holes top and bottom, flooded 
for diving and drained on your tennis shoes afterwards. Never a problem. If 
you do this again, try the side plates. Just sort of radiused up front and 
rectangular with radiused corners at the trailing edge, maybe 4 inches high. 
The engineers told us that the side plates were as important as the airfoil 
shape.
