Recent threads have debated how to teach perfect trim and buoyancy. Nobody seems to endorse the fin pivot exercise but I think it just needs follow though into a trim exercise. Have the students do the pivot exercise while holding a 2 or 3lb weight in each hand. Once the student has...

Hey all you vintage gear gurus! I've collected 4 lp steels for local stuff and was wondering whether to reuse the original valves. The J valve has adjustment screws on the top. I'm not sure whether they set reserve pressure or gauge calibration. I'm curious whether I can remove the reserve...

I am considering these for a travel set if they are a good design and serviceable. Any first hand experiences? Tia, Kevin

Grondar Paslow The link speaks of a new method for growing corral. Sounds promising! Funny how some of the most profound discoveries are stumbled upon purely by accident...

Not for sale but curiosity, found on local buyand sell with a conshelf 14 set is this auto tightening 1st. Just got it home and tried it. While fairly stiff to pull apart, it's far from difficult. That's just to hold it while compressed gas is added. At first there was the tiniest of hp leak and...

There is an R marked inside, my fat head (23" around) won't fit and the wife's (20 1/2") is too small. She is quite small, so please ask if there are other measurements that would help. The hood is 7 mm, uncut, unused as is the DS that it came with. I think $40 US plus actual shipping cost...

Balance Diaphragm Yoke First Stage Does anyone here use these regs? I am considering a pair for sidemount and would appreciate any feedback.

Hi, I have been having sleep apnea events lately as well as chronic fatigue, poor circulation,snoring and maybe a little ADD. I was thinking that this getting old really sucks. But I'm only 50! Sure I've been a welder for 30 yrs and smoked a pack a day for longer. I quit smoking 2 yrs ago now...

Does anyone else prefer to wrap their tank bungee from the inside rather than the outside? Every example I see the cord pulled to the side then under the valve and hooked. I find it's easier to reach across to locate and wrap the cord with the opposite hand. This also helps rotate the tanks down...

Hey, anyone want some pool time? I'm thinking Adventures in scuba, 6 pm to 8 pm. Most any Weeknight that they are not teaching. I've got some New gear to try and they require a buddy....
