I used old backplates as guides as well as some pictures from the jet harness site but I played around with slot sizes, angles and plate lengths by making about 8 plywood plates before i settled on the current config. Initially, it seemed a little snug but with the lumbar plate.. its really nice.

you dont really need an sta. if teh plate is stiff enough, the bands will cinch it tight enough so that it will not shift. I made a diy flat plate single tank rig outta delrin. its in this lnk: http://www.scubaboard.com/t57640-.html I initially thought i needed some way to make sure...

Its quite complicated but ill try to draw up a diagram to explain. If you look at the attachment, the black section is a delrin spindle and a large spool face with holes like the previous picture. That section is held to gether with epoxy and SS screws. the blue sections are delrin rings...

hmm actually I just tilt my head to one side shift the reg o teh lower side of teh mouth and purge while I puke. that way the air forces the contents out through the side of the mouth. upwards. it works for me.

Hello!! I wanted to reply that thread but I left for my trips and never got round to it. Flame polishing doesnt really work .. of maybe I just dont know how to do it properly. I tried running the laser on high power making quick cuts and it worked nice but was time consuming. I just used...

AFter doing all that stuff, I turned my attention to my BC. I have been using a scubapro classic for a long time and I wanted to try a BP system. I had lots of material left so I decided to play around with a flat backplate. Initial, it was just a falt piece and nromal hog rigging, after...

Have been looking into gettin a strobe. But before that, I am also looking into doing a arm system for myself. so far I have this delrin clamp done up. hm wonderin if Ill have any legal issues.. if so , please let me know.

I have an Olympus 505 0setup with the Oly housing. It works great but after a few dives, I thought that I would be better off with a tray and handle. After a few adjustments, heres the finished product. The white stuff is the epoxy I used to glue the horizontal piece. the 2 metal...

Hiya :) My new rig has been Blooded!! or at least salted. :) Figured its time to post. I had some time on my hands so I got hold of some delrin rods and a sheet of delrin and decided to see what I could make of it.. . I did my research.. heres my first item, a delrin spool.

Pipedope: Thanks!! Ill go take out a torch to play .. will see how it goes. Ill go look around.. If i see a laser cutter thing lying around.. Ill let you know.. or maybe I could just lend you my lightsaber... hmm.. Cameron: OOo I forgot about about the air :) LOL Ive been cutting thin...

actualy ive been using a laser... but the edge has some bubbles... and its not usually very smooth.. usually having a slightly slanted edge... hmm.. what kind of a laser do you use? Ive tried with various types of sandpaper.. but the finishing still leaves a lot to be desired...

Hi guys, IVe been playign with bits of delrin but the surface doesnt look that great. wondering if anybody has ever tried to finish delrin to H****** spool standards and how it can be achieved without spending too much :) thanks!!

actually the springs are quite easily sourced in singapore. Have made a few pairs of straps myself for different types of fins. If you still wanna talk about em, drop me a pm.

heya jet1. I agree with japan-diver, courses here are either cheap or good.. very rarely do they coincide. However, you mentioned school holidays, are you a student? If you are a student, there are trips regularly organised by different tiertiary institutes and they are usually VERY...

Blue H... I like the gear but in all honesty, I think all those Hs look tacky. :) oh well. still tryign to decide on the wing... any more opinions on the original subject?

Hi! Im new to the board but I have learned much. yes, I have done a few searches and there are a few posts on the subject but not quite what Im looking for. I am looking for a wing and I can either buy a normal doughnut wing (halcyon or Oxycheq) or I can go with a much cheaper...

Not sure what kind of 'feel' youre looking for but for an EXTREMELY high 'coolness quotient', you might want to look into 'Crumpler' bags. www.crumplernyc.com tho you can look IN the bags in the main site at www.crumpler.com.au Regardless of how they may 'look' they are serious...
