<div dir="ltr">Scott,
<div> A 3300 fsw capable sub will more then likely require that the pressure hull be fabricated from HY-80 or HY-100 . I can assure you that working with either of these two alloys is not for the faint of heart or wallet . I am sure Phil Nuytten can shed some light on this subject . Idabel was built from parts scavenged from some well know subs. If memory serves me correctly the acrylic dome and a HY-100 sphere came IUC's Beaver . The other sphere came from one of the Perry boats .( Vance if I have this wrong please set me straight ). If you get lucky and find some similar bargains you might hit your budget of $100 to $200K . If you have to start from scratch I think $1 to $2 million would not be unrealistic considering the learning curve you will experience. The level of quality control required to work with HY type alloys is something to behold . I am not saying it can't be done it's just that you might make a serious dent in your inheritance
.</div>
<div>Just my two cents,</div>
<div>Dan Lance</div></div>

<div>The good thing is I have a very capable shop now days. With every process of welding available, robotic plasma cutting and design software, a 8,000 crain/lift, metal lathe, hydrolic ban saw with coolant, and about every tool anyone could want, it makes life a lot easier. When I started my K-350 back 5 years ago I was a kid with a set of blue prints and a goal of one day having a submarine and that's it. I didn't know anything about submarines besides they used "ballast" to go up and down. I didn't know how to weld at all or even knew what a metal lathe was. And the only tools I had was a small tool bag with basic stuff my dad had given me from our family hardware store as a graduation present. The reason I don't want to build a 1000' sub is it is not a big enough goal. I need something that is the difficulty level of starting with nothing and no idea to a k-350. I compare a k-350 to a 1000m (3300') sub with completely capable manipulator
and tooling with very advanced technology to be a similar difficulty level and step. I also want to push the envelope for psubs about what we are capable of. Combined we have so much knowledge that if we all worked together, we could be producing ideas and inventions right up there with the big dogs. Hope this helps with everyone understanding my vision</div>

<div>I will do the work myself, and not hire it out professionally. I built my K-350 and it was $40,000 after all the gadgets were put in and I hired out alot of work because I didn't know how to do it at the time. I did a comparative analysis on weight to dollar. My K-350 at $40,000 and 4,500 lbs is comparative ofa 10,500 lb sub would be $93,333 if you add more for acrylic costs my rough math seems to jive with the $125,000. </div></div>

<div dir="ltr">Scott, I have no experience with any large pressure chambers, but I am sure you are talking well into the thousands (perhaps $15,000 to $35,000) depending on how long it takes to set up the required tests (and perform them).

<div>Any idea as to the cost of pressure testing that kind of pressure? </div>

<div>
<div>I am playing with the idea of building another submarine. Here is what I am thinking.</div>
<div>1) This project needs to be as challenging as the same amount of difficulty as it was to build my first submarine</div>
<div>2) I want to have lots of bottom time with my K-350 to learn what needs to be improved on in design and ability.</div>
<div>3) Learn to use CAD </div>
<div>4) Project will take 5-7 years to complete</div>
<div><br clear="none"></div></div>
<div>
<div>My initial goals are</div>
<div>1) Hold 3 people</div>
<div>2) Weigh 10,500lbs or less</div>
<div>3) Depth of 3,300 feet (1000m)</div></div>
<div>4) Have a very effective range of abilities such as a good manipulator arm and tooling</div>
<div>
<div>5) Have a wide veiwing maybe a acylic dome front</div>
<div><br clear="none"></div>
<div>Ok, shoot holes in the ideas. What will be the main challenges to overcome? What complications am I not considering?</div>
<div><br clear="none"></div></div></div>
<div>
