Needed buoyancy, got some foam from Home Depot started to cut and hack some shapes - what a mess so I decided to print some blocks. Still experimenting, ordered some sealer to coat shells and hopefully prevent leakage.

Printed some saddle tanks for buoyancy, snug fit, no room for lead ballast. Set in water very nicely but rolled over and went belly up.
"Diving Officer mind your bubble!" OOPS - no room for lead ballast.Last edited by Ed Kirk; 04-13-2026, 11:28 AM.Comment

Added saddle tanks to hull shell for single print, left room for lead ballast down bottom center.
Experimental prints in terra cotta red filament, cheap and prints very nicely.
My bolt together hull sure makes it easy to experiment with changes.Last edited by Ed Kirk; 04-13-2026, 11:30 AM.Comment
