Hi Rick

There was no distortion as far as i can tell but everyone to there own way of doing things if you feel better by adding bracing then do so what works for one does not always work for others it would not hurt to brace when cutting the conning tower  view ports .

Thanks for keeping such a great photo log on her construction, I haven't been as good unfortunately. I agree with you that this forum has been a life saver for me and couldn't imagine going threw this process without it, Thanks to all. I noted in one of your pictures that you didn't seem to have any bracing on your conning tower when cutting out the view port holes except for the SS ring. Did you get any distortion at the bottom of it?

Congratulations Graham,

looks like you have done a great job. Just had a look on your projects page.

Yes get a good pre dive check list written up as the attention you will get at the boat

ramp can be quite distracting. 

Regards Alan

Hi 

I have finished building Casper two five years of my life have gone into her so no rush to launch her i will go over everything and check every nut and bolt and seal . i will write a check list for every dive i would like to thank every one in the club who has opened my mind to ways of creating such a beautiful submarine. I have listened to your problems and this has made me think harder to over come some of the problems that have come up over the years. I will keep you posted as to when i first introduce her to her rightful home the sea i have been asked to take her to a local museum for a short while to show people that every thing is possible if you have a dream it can become a reality. Someone once said you will never build a mini sub well i have proved them wrong and the proof is in the end product. Again i would like to thank you all for your inspiration may we all live our dreams and  enjoy our dives.

Regards 

Graham Bayliss
