So a guy had some lift bags for sale on the board. I picked up a super nice SS with a valve, and a flag. I also picked up a 250lbs lift bag.
I had no clue the thing would be as large as it is! He was selling some 1000lbs bags, and I can't imagine how large those suckers must be.
I any event, does anyone have a clue as to how one would use this thing? I could think of a few ways to supply air to it, but I think the thing would rocket to the surface long before it was full? Yes, I understand that the air will expand, but it's large enough that I doubt I could even get it 10% full before it would take off, and that would require some depth assuming I could even get it 10% full, and I have no desire to do this deep, in fact just the opposite.
I don't have any plans or need to use this at this time, but it would be cool to inflate it UW and give it a go.
I suppose if I attached it to something heavy on the bottom, that would allow me to fill it up.. hmmm.. maybe I just answered my own question.
