That is also fabulous thank you! It had not occured to me to "unroll" flat sheets for metal fabrication. Very clever!

Joe, DWG is for the metal guys in the group.

Here is my production drawing of a kortnozzle make mostly from three sheets of metal. 
One cylinder and two conus.

I simplied the internal aft ring to a cylinder so it do not matter which propeller seats in the nozzel and which depth. Plates should be deliver by a watercut or laser cut shop. Or for hardcore psubers can be made with a grider or a electric saw or a torch. 

Cad Drawing can be easy scale up and down. Bigger one can be make from stainless steel, free flooding with a small (Epoxy-)filler job on the entrance to be perfect. But even without the filler job it is a nice nozzle.  Small units can be made from brass plates hard soldering together. 

Please not: To be work perfect with the nozzle the propeller need  at the tip ends a small tolerance to the nozzle. Means the tips of a normal free running propller has to be cut to a perfect cycle as shown in the drawing. Anyway a propeller  in a kortnozzles needs a little higher rpm than the same propeller as free runner. So thats fits. 

Kort nozzle will and thrust to our props below 10 knots. At higher ship speeds the surface drag of the nzzle will eats the effects. But nearly all our boats are below 10 knots. 

Hi Emile - maybe there is  a small market for Psubs-made from-massive-Delrin nozzles.. 

Marc or anybody - do you have any information about a kortnozzle with the propeller running reverse ??

All the best Carsten

Im going to try to attach an image. Here is what Ive done for a MK 101 Kort Nozzle with .11 tip clearance for an 11" prop.
