[QUOTE="richg99, post: 228292, member: 4376"] GREAT!! Sounds like you've got the solution well in hand. Your layout lends itself to your process very well. I've never done it, but I also thought about hooking up a small, low powered wet/dry shop-vac to the exit hole(s). Suck her dry! Ha Ha.. I'd keep letting gravity work for you and keep us posted on your success. I also gave some thought to simply elimianting your foam by adding a chemical that will dissolve it. I mess around with some foam model airplanes. The foam is often destroyed by using the wrong glue, or some spray paints. Crazy Glue does a quick job dissolving a foam-wing if you don't use "foam safe" crazy Glue. I think gasoline also will dissolve most foams, but I don't think filling your hull with gasoline is a very good idea...Ha ha... Then, you could mixup some pouring foam to replace the first batch. Hey, I've never done either of these things, but I suspect they might work if one had to go that far. regards, Rich p.s. keep us posted! [/QUOTE]
