This is the final of a series showing how to calculation the lift developed by a cylindrical object used as a floation device.

The spreadsheet and CAD file used in this video can be dowloaded on my website at http://create-and-make.com/the-final-analysis-of-a-floating-barrel-flotation-part-iii/

Also, in my previous post on the website, I show a commerical boat using these barrels to provide the lift.  http://create-and-make.com/the-september-equinox-and-look-at-what-i-just-found/
