>I am sure all sub builders have had there wife help out, I am sure there are some good stories,,,,Brian.... I got Anita to help paint the inside of my sub with epoxy paint.   She wasn't very happy with the limited dust suit, mask and gloves I provided but I just said "oh you'll be ok" and shoved her inside, brush in hand.   She got paint in her hair which was impossible to get out and eventually had to have her hair cut short.   Ive just about recovered from the ear bashing now and I had to take her on holiday in compensation...... :) RegardsJames

Alan,Yes I have air because the port is not in yet, the hatch pops up super easy because it is a steeper angle than tooling.Speaking of that, I am machining the ports next, I will practice on the small ports first because I have extras.Hank

 Glad you got your wife on board Hank.I was thinking of how tapers are used to hold tooling in & wondered
If you got inside & the hatch jammed would you have air?

Thank you Steve, seems the ugliest inventions work the best ;-)    I should get some blue indicator just to have it on hand, good idea.Hank

 Okay, No problem, I told my wife what I was up against and she insisted she could manage it.  I gave her a lesson in chain come  along operations and we did a dry run, including tapping the hatch level.  I hopped in feeler gauges in my teeth and flashlight in hand, She did a perfect job, rolled the gantry in place lowered and leveld the hatch in place.  My angle is off by .004 in , that is not bad for a rookie with limited tooling!  tomorrow I will take it down some more with the angle corrected and when my bride returns from work I will test fit again before the final sizing.
I am sure all sub builders have had there wife help out, I am sure there are some good stories,,,,Brian....Hank

 Thanks Alan,Hey guys I have a tricky situation here.  I have lowered the hatch onto the conical seat and it fits nice or at least as far as I can tell.  I am alone in this mission so I can not get inside the sphere and place the hatch on the land by myself  to determine if the fit is correct from inside.  How can I determine if the two angles are fitting perfect?  without being inside.  I was thinking about plasti gauge for engine rebuilding, it is a little plastic wire that squeezes to a certain thickness for a given gap.  Maybe there is a better idea out there.I still have to take the hatch OD down about .050 in so I have wiggle room to adjust the angle if need be.HELPHank
