    Appreciate the info on the Kilo SD, Mike!!
    Unfortunately, way too steep for my "fixed-income" rear end!
    Many thanks just the same!
    I already have Lexan tubing and acrylic to fab my own SD, but was just looking for a short cut!
    If anything "bargain basement" should surface, please keep me on the radar screen.
    Thanks, again!

      All the 2" stuff is still in production at The Cave, so it's highly unlikely we'll have those molds for 'cheapies' any time soon.
      Stop messing about - just get a Sub-driver!

        Mike,

        Any idea when the long promised 3" SAS SD will be available?

          I'm about to make the catalog page for that new product, Dan. We have John Slater and Mark Green to thank for the re-introduction of the 3" SD -- These guys have been poking me in the ribs for nearly two years now about this.

          A completely updated version -- nothing in common with our original WTC's other than the use of 3" o.d. Lexan with a wall thickness of 1/8".

          Here's a teaser, an 'improved' SubTech ALBACORE with a prototype single-motor 3" SAS SD and shots of the SD alone:

                    Mike,

                    I'm in need of anything 3 or 3.5" in size that is propel system based. Anything you might have?

                    So they went straight into the back of my car and I said I'd sort them out and offer them on the web. I may put some Sub-drivers on Ebay too.

                    As you can see from the photo, there are several Sub-drivers in various stages of disrepair. I am going to find end caps etc and make each unit as complete as possible.

                    If you just want a cylinder, then give me some dimensions and I'll try and sort one out for you, and will cost about $10 each. I'm thinking that complete units will run around $150 -200 depending on whats in them. I'll throw spare motors in free too. (We have lots!)

                    [ATTACH=CONFIG]23378[/ATTACH]

                    I'll blow the dust off this stuff and gradually work through each good unit, then post more details, but if you see anything that takes your fancy now, just ask.

                      Single or twin shafts? Any boat in particular?
