Re: Retro- Retrofit Seafox

30 meters. Although i'll probably be using it in much shallower waters, like off docks and wharfs, where people drop stuff. I'm hoping for a nice collection of car keys, sun glasses and dead cell phones.

Re: Seafox manipulator.

Thanks.
I used a U-cup seal i bought from McMaster Carr. I cut away the outside of the cup and epoxied them onto the box with JB Weld.
The box is a "water proof" electrical box. It has a rubber gasket. Stays dry in the sink. We'll have to wait and see what happens in the ocean.

Left or right's fine. One of each would be best.

Re: 3D Printed Manipulator

Sweet!! Will it also rotate when finished?
What kind of printer are you using? I'm getting close to finishing my version of your Seafox and i'm already thinking ahead to the next one. Might just have to get myself a printer for that(if my wife lets me).

Re: Retro- Retrofit Seafox

Almost done. Still need to finish the left joystick modification, add power input/output connectors and then wire it all up. Plus i'm going to paint those ugly-ass hinges.
