                Somebody needs to build a Shark Hunter II and some DPVs to chase this.

                    Returned from SubFest... Back to Work! Fried one ESC, replaced leaking pushrod seals, and one leaking shaft seal had to be cored out and rebuilt. Not bad -- brought seven models to the event and they all got some water time.









                    ...And one stow-away ant (now Submarine Qualified). This little guy was aboard my Type-23 during all its runs at the event. Only found him when I cracked the WTC during post-mission checks.

                        A friend needs some clear hemisphere gun domes for his NAZI hydrofoil (What?). A vacuforming job. Been years since I did any of that type work and can't find the frames or plenums. Nuts! Got to make a plenum for this job, as well as a holding frame for the heated plastic sheet.

                        First, the plug/puck/form/pattern/mold/thewhateveritscalledthesedays... the item that will give form to the eventual parts.

























                        As the items are small, a scrap piece of Lexan tube was pressed into service as the basic plenum structure. Caped with two WTC bulkheads I had in the spares bin. A hole in the side of the plenum will mate tightly with the household vacuum cleaner hose. Film at Eleven.

                            He had such high hopes after moving that rubber tree plant.
