Yep, gotta work on things that don't require the shop exhaust fan, I saw -30C  today in the car.  My shop heater never stops ;-(Hank

 I'm in the process of making some penetrators as we speak.  Just 2 wires (1/4" thread) each.  They will be 1 1/2" x 4" made out of aluminum with a 1" hole for the rod, but with a slightly smaller opening on the cabin side. Brian

Allan,I went with one penetrator to reduce the number of holes in the hull.  Yes, 11 wires are for the arm alone.  Two of those bring power from the manipulator battery inside the sub.  That gives me an emergency power supply for coms and scrubber.  I did not take construction pictures, should have though.Hank

Hi all,before the holidays I contacted Subcom for the price of a 25 pin connector\penetrator for Elementary 3000.  In the mean time I had a suspicion that my cheap Gene would kick in, so I made a 20 pin penetrator in case it was to expensive.  I pressure tested it today and it is perfect.  The price came in today for the new penetrator at around 1,000 Canadian.  Decision made LOL. I have never attempted to make penetrator with that many contacts before.  It was a piece of cake!Hank
