Today we contsructed the aluminum frame of our submarine. To do this we cut the pieces of aluminum, drilled holes in them and riveted them together.The frame will cosist of of two 8 inch L shaped pieces connected by a flat piece, the engine tubes will be strapped to the L shaped pieces with nylon wraps and the middle tube with the battery will rest on the connecting piece also connected with the nylon wraps. Two other 5.5 inch aluminum pieces will be riveted to the L shaped pieces each with another, with two shorter 3 inch L shaped piece connecting to the ballast tubes also with nylon wraps.
