[PSUBS-MAILIST] new Gamma pictures

[Joe Perkel]

Hank your commitment and results are an inspiration!

Kudos also to Vance for insuring that a piece of historical hardware referenced in the Busby text, went to your very capable hands. 

A decision I'm certain was not arbitrary.

How did you figure out how long each arm should be, size rams, claw construction, what will be the lifting capacity of the arm fully extended? did you make a VBT up forward to keep the sub trimmed while picking up a load? What are the arms made of? any construction pictures of it while you went?
