This is from John's original message.
So here we are.
1. This isn't simulating diving. It _is_ diving.
2. The half year John has spent fiddling was enough time to get certified.
3. The reason he didn't find an answer is that there isn't a safe one.
4. Here is the scary part. I missed it at first. The device is for two people. We are talking about a pool toy. John wants a device anyone, apparently with no training or supervision at all, can use to breathe compressed air at depths up to ten feet.
We aren't talking Darwin awards here. We are talking about dancing with negligent homicide/manslaughter/wrongful death.
Yikes!!

The idea is to simulate diving.

I've looked around for about half a year from time to time, searching without hope for a cheap solution.

I even recently searched this board to no real avail about a similar problem/answer.

About the Snuba and Hookah devices, it seems like they cost awfully a lot for just a pump and tubes. I was wondering how hard it would be to create such a device for two people, from just an air compressor. Are there things that I may not be thinking about that may affect my progress?
