    Very cool watching!
    If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub.

      Not as impressive as when a 637 "flips" her ears up and makes a hole!! ICEX '85, USS Trepang set a world record for ice surfaces, 28. I did about half of them. I don't know if that record still stands. Did that, had the t-shirt. until it wore out.

        I was told at Pier 10, Lower Base, MANY years ago they were the "Emergency Brakes".

          Ever get to see "The Golden Rivet", or a sea bat? How 'bout an overhead buffer or 30' of green chow line??
