Thanks for the help xerxes, my boxmail account is solteszkristian and the password is rebreather (since this is not a permanent account, i don't care much about everybody knowing the pass).

Thanks. You have all been very helpfu. Next week I'll start the construction. Basicly I've used the drawing xerex sent me, then made some slighter modifications to fit me better.

The extra slots on the channel of this plate make mounting a single tank very easy:

Might be worth adding to your plan.

I've thought about adding slots, but i never dive with singles (in sweden at least). And I don't think I'll travel much with the SS: it's too heavy, maybe an aluminum one...
