DIY Underwater ROV Build Part 1

This is the first video showcasing how I am building my DIY Underwater ROV. It focuses on the frame of the ROV, which is based on the basic frame designed by Seaperch.Org. Modifications to the SeaPerch frame include:
- swapping the pool noodle floats for 14 inch long 1 inch PVC Pipes filled with air.
- Swapping the elbows used along the bottom of the frame, at the front, with T junctions to allow more water to flow into the frame.
Future videos will include how to modify 500GPH bilge pumps to work as thrusters, mounting the hardware to the frame and building a control box to pilot the ROV.
This is my first attempt at building an ROV - I am sure modifications will continue with each new piece of hardware I add to the machine.
Thanks to:

- for providing the basic plan for the frame
