I thought I'd use these for fun local quarry vintage diving but simply don't have time with work and grandkids these days LOL...

Figured I'd post here for vintage scuba fans.

For sale is a USD 1954 Rene tank freshly hydro tested (5/18) even O2 clean. It has about 500 PSI in it now and depending on buyer could be shipped. I'm in NE Ohio so even local pick up could be arranged.

Also a as close to MINT Conshelf VI regulator. An Aqualung tech buddy bench tested as I don't think it's seen water. IP was high but solid around 150 but breathes great.

Make offer for one or both via email: davidhaas4596@gmail.com

Pretty cool to see a 1951 hydro stamp.

1951 ? Please. Here are two of my scuba tanks with initial test dates of 1941 and 1942 (yes, predating that silly Cousteau/Gagnan breathing device. :)

Ok, '51 is still pretty cool!

When was the last or first time you saw a white Teflon washer ?

Sam,,I was admiring the Teflon thread tape to seal instead of today's O-rings commonly used. Since I usually have my tanks ' more-than-full ' I'm glad that modern sealing technology has improved. And you are right,,,I've never seen a teflon washer before !!

Definitely something that only us ' seasoned ' divers can admire. Those are the oldest hydro stamps I've ever seen on a tank,,,,Nice !!
 
The reg still has the neck strap! I loved those things!
