Does Such a Thing Exist?

OK here is the back story..

I am looking to add about a pound of weight to a BP/W setup....

I am wonder if there is a plate available to fit between the BP and STA?

 

[Teamcasa]

They do make STA weights, will they work?

Channel weights:

Weight for Single Tank Adaptor

The one pictured weighs about 6lbs. Might try contacting some of the BP manufacturers on the board and see if they have anything lighter.

Yeah i have seen the 6lb ers... Maybe i can get a local machine shop to make something...

Anyone think there may be a market for custom weights?

You could make your own with a drill press and a length of stainless.

If you only need a pound or two, you might use a bullet weight. Cut the clip off and thread it on to your waist strap.

Couldn't be any more simple than that!

Make sure to use 316 marine grade or better. And have cutting fluid handy for the bits. You'll need carbide ones of course.

I think oxycheq or dive rite makes a pouch that fits in the channel and can be filled with shot, it's like a soft channel weight. You could put as much shot in it as you want.

Its a catch 22.... I only need the pound to be slightly negative for lobstering...
