i am going to service my conshelf XIV . i have seen the video on you tube and "herman" with specialized tools appears to no longer be available. On the video is a tool that allows compression of springs, filter and the ring for easy insertion onto the part of regulator that attaches to cylinder. Does anyone know where i can get one of these devices?

Good people, cheap shipping:

Does anyone have an idea for a cap to protect the threads and lip of a Conshelf 1st stage when the yoke has been removed for travel? I usually just put a piece of tape across the filter opening, but it would be nice to have a plastic or metal cap for a little more protection.

I have used something similar to this, but I have not tried this particular ones.

The Amazon link is not working, but here is the description.

I like this ones better. I also like the bright color.

Thanks, Luis!
Just what I'm looking for.
I admit I went sneaking around the house looking for something with 3/4" legs, but no luck.

superglue works well on rubber, I made a custom o-ring for an underwater housing using superglue and oring material.. with some sheet neoprene, you could make one,

The last note with pipe ends of vinyl with perfect fit anyway seems a lot better alternative than trying to make your own. .
