Build Your Own Submarine
Nerobro writes "There's a group of geeks out there who are bound and determined to build their own submarines. In fact, there's a large group who have been successful. The most interesting is Cartsen Standfuss's CSSX-1. There is a mailing list, owners group and sizeable archive of information at psubs.org."
I'm travelling to the US. This should make me feel 'secure'.

..as long as it's yellow
so they can say what's long, hard, and full of nerd seamen? our submarine.
MS version: Get SubXP from the store. DOWNGRADE (we're talking submarines, remember) it with SP2. BSD : (Berkley Submarine Divn) Assemble the parts under water. Linux version : AskSlashdot.
I dream of making a miniature remote controlled submarine. I have dreamed of putting torpedoes on it, too. It's a whole new way of fishing! Torpedo-Fried Algae/Fish/Dirt/Water/etc!
Surface, surface!
Sorry, Captain, the trim panel is trying to lend me money and the buoyancy controls are telling me where to buy a firewall.....thunk
Panurge has posted for the last time. Thanks for the positive moderations.
...who will they tell it to?
This is more dangerous than home built aircraft.
Seriously, if your life insurance company finds out that you're making and sailing homemade submarines, you're going to get dropped like a hot potato.
May we never see th

Yes, hello of people. We also try to keep our data base theoretically determined. And we really appreciate that you look forward to welcome to allow us to your homepage. Much fun!

The jocks will be building ASDIC and depth charges. Prepare to experience the true meaning of "ping".

Looks like the next round of Darwin Awards should be intetresting.

Should we nominate them as a group or each individual independently?

I can't help thinking that if I was one of those "active kids" you know the ones... the ones that leave the house more than just to go to primary school, I would have either electrocuted myself with a toaster or drowned....
Basically I owe my life to my lazyness... sitting around karma whoring and trolling is the least thing I can do to repay my sense of idolness, god bless slashdot!

Without being disrespectful to the Free Submarines Foundation, I would like to mention the existence of this Open Source Submarines webpage.
Apparently, the Open Source developmentmodel is very suitable for building submarines. I cheer at this development. However, I still prefer free as in Willy submarines.
DNA is the ultimate spaghetti code.
Sorry, should have included the <FACETIOUS> tags, apparently!
Stop by my site where I write about ERP systems & more
Well, just remember:
There are more planes in the sea than subs in the sky.
I demand a million helicopters and a DOLLAR!
In other news today, Microsoft has already announced an ultra realistic sim version of building your own submarine, which allows you to actually take your craft into the water and suffocate OR drown to death.

Geeks already built a submarine, the dot com business model. Oh yeah, it wouldn't resurface.
If the Germans figure out how to attach their potato bazookas to their home made subs we're all screwed.
Trolling is a art,
ACHTUNG! ALLES LOOKENSPEEPERS!
Das unterseeboat ist nicht fuer gefingerpoken und mittengrabben. Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und poppencorken mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht fuer gewerken bei das dumpkopfen. Das rubbernecken sichtseeren keepen das cotten-pickenen hans in das pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das blinkenlichten.
If your bitterest enemies are people who hack the heads off civilians, then I would say you're doing something right.
1. Make sure you're one of those people who seem to have just a little _too_ much spare time on your hands.
2. Call up the bank just to say "Hi" and ask them if there's a few million bucks to spare on your savings account.
3. Did you write your will yet?
4. Get "Submarines for Dummies" and the highly acclaimed SAMS "Build your own submarine in 24 hours".
5. Buy a nice tube and tons of electronics which you may get a need for.
6. Start building!
