    Nice Video!

    Watched the new video and quite enjoyed Chuckles' antics! Need to get those test facility cleaners in shift-work!! ;)

    It's leaf season here. I just spent 45 minutes cleaning my pool yesterday afternoon, and within a few hours it's completely full again.

    We'll need to clean it again tomorrow as we need to get video of those ARENA boats fighting it out and get some final video of Chuckles doing his thing, both above and below the water....

      Discharging the pump-jets through the gill-slits worked out magnificently. I must say, Bob, that your shark work is the most innovative, and most visually appealing work you've done to date.

      I hate you!

        We had leaf season a while back, and of course the oaks did not cooperate. They're still blowing around everywhere!!!

          Bob,

          Love both of your shark builds! Is there any chance at all that you might have some STL files out for that shark?? :-))

          Just cleaned up our pool, so I thought I would give my 1:77 scale Nautilus a run. My wife did take a quick video of this boat about 2 years ago!

            Bob, didn’t you have a screened roof for your pool at your previous house in Florida? Maybe it’s time to put one up.

              You want a leaf-clearing R/C sub.

                That's one of the first things we said when we moved here. I've never seen a lanai in any houses here in Texas. Not sure if it's a cultural thing or part of city regulations. I'd LOVE a pool cage again...

                  I'm hoping to make this a product for sale. Right now I have no plans to offer the STL files. You'd need a printer capable of at least 300x400x300mm to print in this scale

                    I meant to say something about that earlier. That shark is something else. It’s amazing looking.

                      Bob,

                      I totally understand what you are saying. Geez, that thing would shore be a hit in my pool. Just have to wait and see what you might offer up in the way of a kit for the shark. Personally, I think it would be hit.

                        How about a giant squid to go with the Seaview or Nautilus

                          I really enjoy the weekly updates, seems like you are hitting a stride in the build/re-build market. Everything on that last video was great but what really jumped out at me was the resin printed Seaview interior, that's really excellent work! I assume this is designed to free-flood so backlighting it would be fiber optics?
