The attached files contain step-by-step instructions, illustrations, and images for lacing webbing through cam buckles. There are some excellent videos on the Web, but there are times when the portability of a hard-copy, higher resolution, and the option of editing are desirable.

These files are in the public domain and can be edited, reformatted, translated, copied, and distributed without royalties or credits. Anyone including individuals, instructors, clubs, and shops can use all or part as desired. The content of all three files are identical:

CamBand-A4.pdf Adobe Acrobat file formatted to Metric A4 paper size. ~830 KB

CamBand-Ltr.pdf Adobe Acrobat file formatted to US 8½ x 11" letter size. ~830 KB

CamBand.doc This file is easily edited with most word processing and publishing programs. Illustrations are in vector format so resolution is not compromised by resizing. Images/photographs have moderate resolution to keep file size reasonable. ~1.77 MB

Thanks for the well illustrated reference source. I test my DM candidates on cam band re-assembly since there is always a student or a diver in rental gear that disassembles everything without knowing how to reassemble it. It's usually the with the loose tank.

Everyone starts somewhere, and some people learn better with practical experience. This doesnt necessarily make them a Dork does it?

While I am sure you were just trying to be funny, but how would you feel if you were the student who had
had trouble assembling the band and then read that statement?
