style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><div>Alan,</div><div> I like the idea of the ropes to control in case of rolling during a test. BTW, got all that lead today, did you know that you can cut lead with a Skill saw ? I just tried it today, works really good. I think I might be able to position all that lead in my ballast area with out having to melt it . I can secure it with some sort of bolted bar arrangement.</div><div> </div><div>Brian<br /><br />--- personal_submersibles@psubs.org wrote:<br /><br />From: Alan via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><br />To: Personal Submersibles General Discussion <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><br />Subject: Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] more Esmae video<br />Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2016 06:52:21 +1200<br /><br /></div><div>Brian,</div><div>so if you add weight you need to add floatation to
