[PSUBS-MAILIST] Diameter Size



Hi All
I will be building a Cylindrical shaped sub with a hemi-shpere at the front end. The dimensions of the sub will be as follows and I just want your opinion guys.

  Length =    3 meters
  Diameter =  1.3 meters
  Steel thickness = 1 cm

I am concerned about two things. First are 1.3 meters for the Diameter of the sub is Practical, to drive, to take pics, to use a manipulator etc.. Or is that going to make things awkward to the occupant?

Second, I want to dive as deep as 100 meters, but I will be testing it at 300 meters. So is the 1 cm thickness of steel is way too much. Am I exagerating in my concern about safety?

 I greatly appreciate any comments.

Thank you all
Tarek

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] How much water?

How much water do we need, typically, to float these
small subs?   What depth does the K-boats take, just
to float freely?
