    Calypso J First Stage

    I bought a Calypso J in 1971, dove it exclusively for 18 years. I decided to get it up and running again for shits and giggles. I remember it had a recall on the HP seat and mine was effected. I bought a kit for it but I believe I'm having problems with the piston bushing assembly. Does anyone...

    Snark II side exhaust

    I have a couple Snark II's side exhaust regulators. One has a black rubber mouthpiece and uses standard hoses. Best way to explain how it breathes would be to breath through a regulator that is not hooked up to a tank with the dust cap off. I put the second stage on a different first stage and...

    White lithium grease in tank

    A friend who owns a dive shop did a visual on a alum tank he had in rental. The tank was like nothing he had ever seen before and knowing I had a tank tumbler he asked me to take a look. The valve had what appeared to be white paint on it but it was not completely dry. I wiped my finger inside...

    Aqua Lung Bac Pac, 56-58

    Pac on the left, seems to be quite common but recent acquisition is different. Slots for the nylon strap rather than hardware and wider plastic shoulder straps. I have a copy of a 1955 catalog, and my oldest catalog is from 1959. Pac is in neither of those. Raised plastic buttons formed in the...

    Tyger Ray Tiger Ray Switch

    I have been looking for a way to fix a Tyger Ray magnetic switch. I think I may be at least 1/2 way there. I found a box of assorted plastic intermittent push botton switches. They fit nice and snug in the hole where the broken switch once was. The threaded portion of the switch is long enought...

    Sportsways Waterlung 500C, transparent

    Just picked up a Sportsways 500C, I have never seen or heard of these and hope that someone can shed a little light on this model. Seller claims a dive shop put epoxy on it at the first sign of any fracturing. I don't see any cracks through the clear epoxy,where the hose attaches. I have another...

    Aquatica Point and shoot

    Not sure if my question even fits here. Sorry if I should be someplace else. I have an Aquatica housing made for an inexpensive Vivitar BV40 film camera. The housing seems pretty heavy duty, aluminum with a thick plastic cover. My question is, is there a digital camera that fits this housing...

    I have a 1954 US Divers tank with original valve. Tank cleaned and hydroed. Valve leaks at both outlet and J valve arm. Both plastic seals were in rough shape so they were replaced by new retro parts. Looks like the on off plastic seal is the same part number as the one on the reserve arm. The...

    Healthways and Nemrod

    One of my old dive buddies gave me his first regulator, a Nemrod Snark II Deluxe from the early 60's. Hooked it to a tank and it breathes much easier than any other vintage tilt valve I have tried. I noticed that it seems to share a lot in common with a newer Healthways Scuba Star TDQK. The...

    Aeris ION second stage for sale

    Second stage only. Very small second stage with very high performance. Has venturi control and dial to detune. Small size would possibly make it a great choice to use on a necklace. Swivel is built in so if you need a longer than standard hose, using a fitting to join two LP hoses together would...
