[PSUBS-MAILIST] Fw: deep diver port frame

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Alan,Thanks' I enjoy this stuff, so motivation comes easily, and yes I was working in -21C  about 10 days ago. So now I am stuck in my warm shop with cable TV :-)  for the rest of the winter.   How are those motors coming, I will need a couple of light motors and there is no point in both of us trying to invent the same thing  :-) Hank

Hello All,Here is my first port frame for my deep diver.  The machining has gone well up to this point-the outer edge is to hard to machine from being flame cut.  I managed to machine the front half of the edge but can't go further.  I could leave it but there is 40 lb of steel I want to get rid of-it still weighs 130lbs.  I think I will take them to a shop a couple hr away and have the outer edge cut off with a water jet. Then I can finish the edge up.  The port inside opening looks real thick but that is just a ring tacked on the inside for the lathe chuck to grab.  I am machining the conical hatch land now and it has nice soft edges so far.My home made power feed is working great even though the speed control is not working.  I control the speed by using a 6v battery instead of 24v.
