The
rotary thru hull is rusted and has male threads on the exterior that are
rusting quite nicely. I'm changing all the thru hulls in the sub to 316
SS couplers, so while I'm at it I might as well change that one as well, so I
can get all the hull welding out of the way. I'm adding two large SS plate
type thru hulls on both the forward and rear heads for what ever I might want
later as will as current needs. This way I can install and run a
pnuematic, electric, or hydralic arm later.
I just figured out how Paul
Moorhouse attaches his SS plates without any bolt holes in the main hull. So
I'll make a CAD model to show you guys what I thinking will be nice to use on
my sub.

I'd leave the rotary penetrator plugged for when you
can think of something to do with it, and build something more useful for a
manipulator. That's if you can find it under the
snowfield.

Hi Vance, The winter up
here is pretty deep. I went home the other day to shovel snow off my
buildings and Van and it was a four day chore. I had the sub
ready for blasting outside, and then was called away from home to work.
By the time I got back the sub was under 4 plus feet of snow. The
pictures I took are pretty funny. I'll post them in a bit. So the sub is
underwater and in the deep freeze for save keeping. I have been debating for some
time now if I should leave my original claw arm on the sub. It's very
hard and slow to actuate. So at the moment it's used for just a
crash bar, like Alec uses his for. I can make a proper replacement crash
bar, then later add a more functional arm. So it's mostly a matter of
nostalgia at the moment. What would you do in my place. I
take it you could see the pictures right? Jay try this link to the root for
the albums. If that doesn't work then I'll post them on Flicker. I tried
those links when being signed out and being on Windows Explorer browser and
had no trouble. I also tried them on a Mac in Firefox and had no trouble. The
only thing I can see that is different in the link from the address bar from
the ones in my posting is the %20 sign used in place of spaces that are put in
automatically when I copy and past the links. Perhaps they are causing
the trouble if you copy and paste them. I tried them both by just
clicking the links and copying and pasting and they worked good. The
albums are set as public just like I did before. Hope this
works.
Regards,
Szybowski

know I'm not the only one stuck with bull work. Of course, it was 76 degrees
here today, sunny and a few clouds...breezy. Okay, I can't think of a
complaint. And there's some of you guys who up to your armpits in winter, and
I do mean winter. Vance
