Ballast System Suggestions

[Thor]

Skip,

Thanks very much for your reply! I think it is an excellent suggestion for the community project. Would you be willing to lend us your brain on working up a basic print for the ballast system?

Be glad to help out.....just as soon as the WTC is determined. BTW - my vote is for lexan. PVC is too heavy and, with a comparable outside diameter, has less internal room.

I was a big fan of the setup in ALBACORE. Very simple and easy, helped me get going in the hobby.
I see others selling similar units under different names with (to me anyways) minor semantics changes. What's the saying, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery??

We should move this conversation over to the actual community build thread. I think Skip has a very valid point and can help us get this thing going.
