Sacred, thanks for all that. :thumb:
Does anyone have a source for digital copies of either Vance's book or the Scuba Tools book? An iPad with a gorilla case is so much more practical in the shop!
What are some good strategies / procedures for testing their work beyond the bench?
Hello,
Can anyone point me to some resources on how / where to obtain a higher level of training for regulator repair and maintenance? I am not looking to pursue a career in this, but I'd still like to have the knowledge.
We used to have an instructor locally who ran a course for DM's on how...
A thread I started generated some valuable discussion and links.
I'd like to consolidate some of that information in the original post for the thread, so people don't have to go scrolling around the thread aimlessly like lost ostriches.
But I don't see an edit button...is there...a way to...
Wow this blew up...
Some great information posted here. Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far.
A few points for everyone:
I will update the original post (OP) to consolidate what everyone has posted.
Please keep the digressions to a minimum. This thread is meant to be about sharing...
Does DAN, or any other recognized body regularly publish anything analogous to the American Alpine Club's (ACC): 'Accidents in North American Mountaineering'? Amazon Link
For those who aren't familiar: The book I'm referring to is a yearly publishing of statistical data, accident analysis by...
I used these first stages, purchased from Laura, during a month long archeology project in Spain, and they worked well under all conditions, with my MOD being 150ft.
I just picked up a pair of enviro-kits from martin, and they have been tested and work well in the pool. I will update when I...
Wow - re-reading my own post I noticed how harsh I was to the OP.
In any case - I still haven't had any luck finding an exclusive diving tracker. I'd love to start one, and I have some stuff to share - so if you're interested, send me a PM and maybe we can set one up.
Got my DIN's in the mail last week.
I was amazed at how not cheap these things are - for 60 bucks this is a smoking good deal. Hopefully some reasonably priced enviro kits turn up soon!!!
Also, for those wondering, when I ordered my units, there was a shipping problem and I didn't see...
Hey guys - this is a really interesting inquiry I got from a potential OW student a couple of days ago at the shop - shes got a labret piercing ( Wikipedia - Labret) and wanted to know if it would leak, during diving - I told her I didn't know, but would get back to her with an answer.
I've...
Good of you to ask. Some people wouldn't. :)
I was getting the vibe from you, mostly from your extended vocabulary usage of words like "bull****" that you had some sort of beef and were getting wound up about something - even more puzzling if you agree is why you'd choose to address my...
Are you putting that in the form of a question to be smart?
The evidence is all around us. Construction along the yucatan peninsula is exploding - the highway is being widened, and there's dozens of new resorts popping up along the shoreline.
There was an interesting documentary, a...
Hey I'm interested in one of these, DIN style - plus the enviro kit (when it becomes available) shipped to Canada.
I will call tomorrow to confirm this + payment.
So I'm *not* the only one. :D
I think making thermite from rusty nails, and potassium nitrate from garden soil requires some fairly significant ingenuity! :rofl3:
Again, avoiding the political melodrama this thread has stirred up, I'll simply reply to the OP and address their question directly.
The nature of diving as a serious long-term activity makes environmentalism almost an implicit requirement in a way - since the activity is directly linked with...
