All welds in the pressure hull were done by a profesional certificate
boiler welder. He ask me after each round - and some welds have 8-10
rounds each side to have a look. 

And we make the spot check test on each first layer and on the last
layer. Preheating was measuring by a infrared thermometer gun. The
welding wire was checked before starting the day tomake shure that we
have the right one for black/white conections. 

And on one weld - we found a crack. 

Psubs are toys for big children - so better make them children safe.. 
Spot check is a simple device - and can be done also by childrens.. ;-)

regards Carsten
