Is there a site for this to see the collection or is it private from you?

I have had luck at McMaster Carr for hard to find SS hardware.

Actually I have found similar to the one I asked for at:
Stainless Steel Loops

But I do not need it anymore. I've made myself from SS wire. Little thinner but works well.

Thanks.

The pics will be taken and posted hopefully this weekend.
 
used two D rings and hammered bent them in vise to go thru the slot. I used a piece of flat bar stock with a rounded edge in the vise so as not to scar/cut into the d ring when I hammered it over, could also use a piece of hardwood. Need to bend them over so they don't stick you in the back. Secured it on backside with with quick links. Feels good against the body but have not dove with it yet. Might change from quick links to another method so they don't rattle. Straps slide quickly and make it easy to get in the rig on land. D rings on each hip will keep it from coming off if buckle opens.

2 -d rings $5.20
2 - quick links $2.60

Finally I got time to take some pics of my rig. It is constructed for SM and with ability to adjust like the Cinch.

1:st Series - Waist part.

I hope it's clear enough.

Cost? I had everything at home. But you can see it is made of really simple and basic items that's easy to get.

תודה ערן.
מדהים איך מצאת את זה. לא חשבתי שלליזור-פרו יהיה כזה.
אני התכתבתי עם דייב רייט ואולי אם לא יסתדר איתם אזמין מלייזור-פרו.

אתמול חזרתי מאילת לאחר ששמתי לופ כזה שכיפפתי בעצמי (התחיל להחלי&#1491:wink: אבל הכל עבד נהדר.

אני אכניס מודעה באנגלית :) עם תמונות בימים הקרובים כשיהיה לי יותר זמן.

זאב

נ.ב אתה נמצא בפורום צלילה בתפוז?

Shalom. Nice Stuff. Does anyone here translate Hebrew.
 
Updating my rig from the first design to duplicate the halcyon glide harness many years ago. It made too much noise clanking in the water so didn't really use it much. Decided to change it over to emulate my zeagle express tech back plate set up. Took the D rings and cut them off leaving the straight portion and then threaded the ends. Drilled a couple of holes and then used a regular nut with acorn cap to protect the wing. One pic is with one regular nut and acorn and one without, decided to go with the double nut on both sides. Works great and no noiseimage1.jpgimage2.jpgimage3.jpg
