About me:
What I'd like to do is perhaps simplify a bit. I am thinking that if I doubled some smallish tanks (~50's as mentioned above, or?) with an isolation manifold, I can eliminate the pony. I have also heard that doubling in this manner can increase stability, which would be great as I have started video (taping?) my dives. I have plenty of opportunities (I think) to get some mentor-ship on utilizing doubles in a rec OW environment.
The questions:
I'm hoping I've provided enough information. Thanks for looking, I look forward to any responses!
- Frequent solo beach diver
- Freedom Plate with Oxy Sig 30# (has the stand-off on the bottom)
- 19 cu' catalina pony

- Fusion (sport skin) DS
- No tech ambitions

The questions:
- Is this crazy? (I'll make up my own mind, but I'm happy to hear your opinions)
- Has anyone modified the Freedom Plate for doubles? (If you are a local machinist and feel confident you can do this, please PM me)
- Anyone with a similar experience...I am interested in hearing your experience
