    Where can I find Latex or Butyl gloves?

    Wind, I misread your post and have probably lead you astray. I've got the double ring set in which the glove is held in one ring with a heavy o-ring. That's the kind of set for which I bought my gloves. I don't know if they'll work for the kind of set you described in your last post...

    Where can I find Latex or Butyl gloves?

    Wind, I found a place in Guelph, Ont. that sells all kinds of gloves. 3 of us picked up 50mil butyls for $6-$7 a pair. They work very well. Service was prompt. Website is WWW.PROBUY.NET Hope this helps.

    New to diving dry

    I think you'll find, as I did, that it was not the issue it was when I dove wet. Something about being cold, and wet...

    Scubapro Classic

    It was first bc for both my wife and I. It gave us 500+ trouble-free dives. I loved the big, easy to reach pockets. The natural "hug" of a jacket-style bc helped my wife become comfortable diving. I still use it for St. Clair river dives. When some pocket stitching began to unravel...

    argon

    My wife uses argon. She pays $.50 cf (she doesn't know UP's gas supplier). She's had it less than a year. So far she's spoken of no down side. She claims to stay much warmer. Like Uncle Pug, she's using a 6cf AL bottle (but no doubles). If you can't get a deal with the local welder, check...

    Thanks for the hints, guys. The wife and I will take pix of each other in all are gear on the scale. Should be an award-winning shot in the "humor" category. :D

    Isle Royale in Lake Superior....

    Some of our crew slept in a tent they brought and the shelters that are available. 3 of us slept aboard. For heaven's sake, take repellant and a tent or mosquito netting. Our folks said the bugs didn't know whether to eat them there or carry them out. Their tent was ok, but the one shelter...
