Side Thrusters

28/07/09

These are the almost completed motor rotating through hulls.  .  I forgot both my camera and phone while I was making these, so no construction pictures I’m afraid.

The weld in part is the same as on the plans (except its made for a 28mm bore) and the bar is a combination of various designs.  There is a 15mm bore all the way through with a 20mm wider bore at the motor end.  The bar is threaded 18tpi to fit into the motor pod.

There is a stop and plastic washer yet to make.  The bore inside the bar will take 4mm brass rods and be filled with epoxy.
