Hi James
I have been looking at the plans if you look at the eternal arrangement you 
can draw aline from one rotating handle to the other and it gives you a line 
touching the front pod vents.
Hope  this Helps

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Pod Vent Allignment


Hi All.

Finally i am assembling my battery pods.  Can someone help me with a 
problem.

The plans show the position of the vents on the pods themselves, but i cant 
see where they go on the hull, lengthways down the hull.  Not exactly 
anyway.

Looks like the front vent ends up between hull frames 1 and 2. but where 
exactly?  Smack in the middle?  That would be 7 inches from the front of the 
uncapped hull tube.

Or, does it line up so the uncapped pod lines up with the uncapped hull?

Also, i am only putting in 1 vent at the front.  The other is replaced with 
the electrical through hulls (Alec's design).  I have modified the spacing 
of the through hulls so they fall exactly between frames.  easier to weld if 
they are not to close to the frames.

Do you understand what i mean?  Picture is here of them just placed into 
position.  The front vent is in the correct place as per the plans and the 
spacing would allow the vent to to in the middle of frames 1 and 2, the 
others fall in between the other frames.

The questions are:

1  Where exactly do the pods go in relation to the hull.

2  Am i ok to change the spacing of the vent\through hulls to allow them to 
fall conveniently between frames?

Thanks
James
