Gauges

I made a rather elaborate bracket to hold the two depth gauges.  I should have bought them with a panel mount so I wouldnt have needed to muck about with this.  Anyway, they fit quite nicely.  One gauge reads depth in meters\feet and the other pressure in Bar\Psi.

Just worth noting was that when I fitted the 1/4 inch PSPP to 6mm adapter to the bottom of the gauges, they are sealed with a copper washer.  I inserted a drill bit through the adapter and into the gauge in order to hold the washer in place so it seats correctly.

NOTE:  5/7/12  Changed the copper washer for PTFE ones.  Not a good idea to have stainless, copper and sea water all together.
