[PSUBS-MAILIST] printing

Brian,
I will reinstall the cue ball arm until I make new hyd arms.  I need to dive the sub with the new bow dome to get a feel for what will work best.

 Hank,
           Have you decided against
 the cue ball?

 Alan,
 That is a good option, but it adds a step.  I like the
 idea of machining out of a lump of plastic. This is a real
 opportunity to get creative.  I like it!

  Hank,what
  about adding syntactic foam to counter the
  weightor
  make the members out of fiberglass if you really want
  togo that
  way. Concur with Alec about printing. Have a
  friendwith a 3D
  printing business & he has been very
  negativeabout
  printing larger objects.His advice was it was much
  easier&
  reliable to CNC it out of a lump of plastic.Alan

  Alec,
  Thanks' for putting that to bed.  Perhaps
  machining parts from blocks of plastic.  I have some
  experience machining plastic and it was a treat. Deep
 Rover
  has ABS pipe members with ss liners, the member is the
  cylinder, sweet.

   Hi
   Hank,
   Generally speaking you
   are
  limited to relatively small pieces and they take a long
   time. It is of course not impossible, but most
  likely not
   the most efficient approach, at
  any rate with small printers
   like
  mine. 
   Best,

   Alec

  will need two new opposing manipulators.  I am wondering
  if
   it is possible to print the arm
  members.  Is it
   practical?  I am trying
  to create an almost weightless arm
   set
  up.
