[PSUBS-MAILIST] Removable tru hulls

Fri Jan 16 13:07:36 EST 2015

Scott, 
Okay makes sense, I would weld in a 1 inch thick ring in the head where it is safe from impact.  It will distort a bit, but no worries.  Take a 6 in grinder with a brand new grinding stone and grind it as flat as you can then spend some time with a flat file, then finish it with a piece of round glass and wet sand paper.  Use the glass as a guide with feeler gauges.  Bin there done that, and it works great.

 Hank,The
 reasoning for it is to be able to change things easily. On
 something like manipulators and tooling, I would expect lots
 of changes and
 modifications.Thanks,Scott

 Scott,
 Why such a big penetrator plate for just control wires?

  Scott,
  please not there! I did it, and it took me weeks to
 correct
  the weld distortion. I had to build a custom tool to
  re-machine the seat in place. Give me a call if my last
  email was not clear.
  Best,
  Alec

  I think I just figured

 the
  bottom of the sub in between the ribs. Both manipulator
 arms
  can share the single penetrator and hook right into the
  hydrolic resevor box. Thanks!Scott Waters

  It's not hard to do
  that. You put the quick disconnects out near the arm
 release
  point and whatever disconnects it, also disconnects
 the
  hydraulics. Personally, I'd rather have extra
 viewports
  on either side of the big window. I do know that you have
 to
  avoid compromising the knuckle where the head transitions
  from cylinder to ellipse.

  Vance,

  They are 7", but I wanted to put them somewhat
  close to my main veiwport which has a fairly big tru hull
 of
  I believe 20" ( I would have to measure to confirm).
  The reasoning for this is I am making the control with sub
  cons so if I disconnect the arm and pull straight back,
 the
  plugs will disconnect. If I have to put the removeable
  7" plate on the side of the sub, I would have to find
  some way to put everything at a 90°.

  Thanks,

  Scott Waters

  Scott,

  Not sure about the
  engineering, but George told me that if things were about
 a
  diameter apart, then they would be okay. Maybe one of the
  guys will crunch the numbers. How big are these
 penetrators
  going to be?

  I am putting two removeable tru hulls in Trustworthy
  (same as Alec) for my manipulator arms. I want to put them
  close to the front veiw port of the sub. I know if I get
 to
  close to the front veiw port it hurts the structure. How
  close can I get to it and still not hurt the
  structure?

  Thanks,

  Scott Waters
