Battery Pods

11/12/08

I have started to make the parts for the battery pods.  These are the 2 rings that will make the lip for the endcap to slot over.  I had these made at a professional company as the rolling machine I used for the hull reinforcing rings is still broken.  I have no other roller I can use.  Anyway, here they are ready to be welded in.  The place who made them welded them closed which I didn't actually ask for, so I may cut them so I can cramp them really well into the inside of the pipe.  You can see the one in the background is just pushed into place.  I’ve made these from 316L stainless instead of mild steel.
