    My pieced together vintage setup

    Thought I would throw up a couple of pics of my loosely assembled doubles setup. I have the other band and all the hardware. Just wanted to get an idea how it would look. The tanks are steel 72s that I stripped and recounted with Gavilite. They were born in ‘64 and ‘66. The backplate I cut...

    Double Hose backplate

    I have made some revisions to the classic double hose backplate design and this is what I plan on testing next time I’m out diving. I liked the ability to use a single piece of webbing like my HOG plate uses so I mixed the two designs and came up with the design pictured.

    My Compressor build

    I am currently piecing together a small compressor based on plans from decades old Popular Mechanics. I modified the compressor loosely following the directions. I’m using a 1/2 horsepower electric motor. Tonight I cnc plasma cut the plate that mounts both the motor and compressor from 3/16”...

    Filtering recommendations?

    Good Day All, I am currently building a small compressor setup using some plans from Popular Mechanics. It’s a small Cornelius compressor and I’m in need of some filtration recommendations. I believe the compressor is only rated at .6 FFM. Can someone point me in the right direction for...

    I wanted a VDH backplate...

    But they don’t seem to have any available. I happen to have a CNC plasma table so I drew up a what I would call a cheap copy. Hopefully I’m not stepping on anyones toes (Luis or Bryan) as I don’t plan on offering them for sale. Just for my pleasure. The pic is just a auto cad drawing of what...

    US Divers/Aqualung Jet Air

    Just wanted to share my new to me Jet Air. I picked it up off eBay and probably paid too much. I tore it down, cleaned it in my ultrasonic cleaner, and rebuilt with an array of new parts both from VDH and the Scuba Museum. This reg puts me up to 3 double hose regs, two of which I plan on diving.

    What do you all think?

    My brother is the one responsible for getting me into diving. I have amassed quite the collection of gear and enjoy working on all of it. Anyway, he dives a Titan reg set right now. I have a soft spot for the Scubapro 109’s and have a few. With the duropoppet kit from VDH the regs breath so...

    American Bristol/Bauer Capitano K

    Hi All, looking at a compressor and I was wondering what it would be worth. I’m not sure what to offer. The seller said it’s been sitting for 10-15 years in a garage. Here’s a pic of the nameplate. Are parts still available for it?

    Cornelius Compressor Conversion

    Good Evening All, I have been on a vintage kick with my scuba gear lately and recently picked up a wwII era Cornelius compressor. I want to convert it so I can fill my lp scuba tanks and also to display in my ever growing vintage scuba collection. I found plans on VDH for the conversion and...

    Tank to tank fill?

    Hi All, I recently was certified to do tank visual inspections. I have quite a few tanks and economically it made sense. My question is that I don’t want to leave my tanks empty to long after an inspection and getting them filled right away isn’t always an option. My idea is to use what I...

    Storing Double hose regulators?

    Good Evening All, I was wondering what you're using as far as storage for you dh regs when traveling? I use common reg bags for my single hose regs but was thinking they wouldn't be adequate for the dh regs due to the differing dimensions. I was thinking about a padded camera bag. After...
