Gregory's ServerWe're always gathering notes for projects we'll try to tackle in the upcoming winter, but one that I've been particularly looking forward is to take out the household water tank we put under the v-bert, and build one from scratch that follows the curves of the bow, built into the hull itself.

@avi Thanks, I appreciate it. But part of the fun in this project is to learn how to make it ourselves. I was wondering, can you cnc cut thin sheets of aluminum?  @neauoire @avi yes you absolutely can. Either router with some form of hold down (can be as simple as masking tape and super glue or vacuum or a spring loaded roller on the spindle, and down cutting bits help avoid pulling it up), or a strong enough laser. Both available as a service or diy. Can also print a life size template onto paper, glue it on, and have at it with snips or a grinder with the right type of disk if the shape is simple enough. @neauoire Not a water tank, but my dad built a holding tank out of fiberglass that follows the curve of the hull, if you're looking for ideas: http://www.sltf.com/boat/system/plumbing/?zoom_highlight=holding+tank |
@neauoire it will be far from a perfect fit but I do have the water tank from under the v-berth of my Albin that you are welcome to.
