I had a recent comment on the blog for an update. Its not that I have been forgetting to update the blog, but actually I have not made much progress lately since I have been doing some other things. I am basically at the stage where I need to glue the stuffing tubes in place. Here are some pictures of the jig I have made to make sure that the motors are nicely aligned with the stuffing tubes when I glue them in place. The also is sets the distance of the ends of the stuffing tubes from the motor based on my hubs. There will be about a 4-5mm gap between the stuffing tube and hub; from my understanding it should NOT be any more than this.
At the transom the stuffing tubes extend about 5mm into the Arneson drives, I don't see how it could be more.
