I kept cranking the engines up and testing made these simple water pickups to shoot water into the nose cones we could not use remote pickups, it worked fine but water borne crap like plastic bags would defeat it,We made a tool consisting of a pair of pipes a small long one that fit very close inside of a larger one.The small pipe clamped up on the pad at the engine center line while the larger one had a "T' handle and was faced with sandpaper this allowed me to slowly cut a long groove starting a couple feet forward and about a inch and a half deep at the transom, The engines got water with prop shaft up I was happy .
The Cheetahcat lives on the Carpet now.

Artie, we setup this french fork mixer of Iranian origin, here they are batching a structural putty used in Balsa bonding ( for our Dubai branch) which was canned and shipped out. I color coded these to avoid any mixups.

I was cutting a lot of Balsa in those days for the Military stuff so this tilting band saw was built, copied after the old ship building saws ,this was a 1 Meter Pakistani saw with a large 380 Volt 3 ph Motor in other words, ran till I shut it off.

This was before the move to the large place in an area known as Sabhan near the Kuwait Airport.
The Idea here it the table stays flat and the saw tilts back, this one would go to 65 degrees, a simple angle finder was used and the Gullet as the blade went back there were different sized filler pieces that were picked up placed in front or back of the blade .the tilt was controlled by a 1/4 ton chain fall.

So, you had to cut a hole in the floor to allow for the tilt of the saw?

Yes as it's axle was placed right at the old center line of the now discarded tilt table which meant the back of the saw went down below the floor as it was tilted, this saw also had a good vertical dimension to the throat. I saw it laying in the back of a old Arabian wood shop while searching out material brought it back and had a welder do my conversion and got the floor opened.Slippery when wet.
