Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Bill Gifford's sub...

[SeaLordOne@aol.com]

Teammates,

I believe Bill's site (and others like it) would be a good role-model for PSUBS.  We currenty post mostly photos of completed subs, but he (and others) have posted dozens of photos of every step of his build.  I would love to see a sub-building diary and a list of components (with prices and suppliers) to go along with it.  Photos, timelines, diary, suppliers, prices, blueprints, unexpected problems, test plan, test results, lessons learned...the more you can share the better.

I realize it is a LOT to ask someone to build a psub AND document the process as well.  But a few folks are doing it on the psubs site already.  If we want to build a community/organization, and not just a bunch submarines, I believe we should encourage folks to go beyond the call of duty, if possible.  No shame if you can't build and document too, but "extra credit" if you can.
