The fire never jumped the road,  so everything on my side of the road is untouched, the other side is in pretty bad shape and still battling small fires. So as long as the winds don't pick up like last night we may be able to return in a day or two.

>> Hey Brian,We evacuated the motorhome last night to my office. Left our ranch this morning after the fire circled most of the northern outskirts of the city. As we evacuated this morning with animals loaded and a caravan of vehicles,  the fire was across the road and coming up the face of Calistoga grade east. They did a hard close of Calistoga at Harville 20 min after we left. At my office now getting organized, not knowing if the fire passed us by or not, or if we will living in the motorhome for a while. At least all of the family has evacuated and are safe.

>> Hi Brian, all of the parts cut on the cnc are based on the Rhino model which based on actual thicknesses.  The expectation is that the 3/8" fiberglass exoskeleton when molded should fit over the plywood forms. Even the cutout is sized for the 36" x 3/8" hull. I will be using a 36" Sonoma tube which has a 3/8" wall thickness,  so the interior pilot console that has been fabricated out of ss, will be able to be relocated into the final hull when complete. At least that's the plan.

>> David,   Yeah, my whole design changed after doing a full scale mock up.  After seeing one of Phil Nuyten's plywood mock ups in Vancouver it was very insightful.  However the plywood doesn't necessarily correspond to the actual dimensions of the outside of the sub because you need some strength to hold it together , so I made two mock ups, one for ergonomics for the inside and one for the outside dimensions.
