Gadget Master takes his own submarine for a swim

homemade sub 1.jpgWould you ever consider building your own submarine? And then take the homemade vehicle for a spin in a lake?

Credit to one Tao Xiangli prepares who has done just this with his submarine in a lake on the outskirts of Beijing.

China Daily writes:
Amateur inventor Tao, 34, made a fully functional submarine, which has a periscope, depth control tanks, electric motors, manometer, and two propellers, from old oil barrels and tools which he bought at a second-hand market. He took 2 years to invent and test the submarine which costs 30,000 yuan (US$4,385).
