where to buy bungee for necklace?

[gmerick]

Home Depot - 100 ft 3/16 shock cord = $19.00. Enough to tie 30 of the $9.00 DiveRite necklaces

One good reason why you want to make your own is if the knot ever comes undone, you will be able to retie the knot.

i’ll definitely check them out. i had checked on their website but couldn’t find bungee for sale. guess i’ll have to just stop by and say hello and see. other question, you ever had your regs serviced there?

No, I generally take mine to UW Sports WHEN I get them serviced. I'm a service when they need it, not when they don't type of person. YSS is also a good spot to take regs, but they're a bit further out of the way for you (Tacoma and Hoodsport).

1/4" rubber tubing from your local hardware store and a couple of zip-ties.

sounds reasonable. i just picked up a regulator set from a local diver but he hadn’t used them in a little bit, so looking to get them checked out. if you don’t mind me asking, what exposure protection are you using to dive in the pnw? i’m still getting everything together to start diving locally, vacation only diving is not enough for me anymore.

Quite seriously, you should consider buying a stash of bungee. If you continue diving, it comes in mighty handy on many occasions.

Drysuit my man, drysuit.. lol

I dove here for 20 years in wetsuits and a semi-dry for about 2 years. Drysuit is the way to go.

Check out seaskin. Repairs aren't an issue and the price leaves you $$ to buy a fleet of tanks.

I ordered a new Seaskin Nova (trilam) drysuit at the beginning of June. It arrived last week. I took it up to the Saint Lawrence River and did 7 wreck dives from Fri to Mon (yesterday), as part of an Advanced Wreck Penetration class with @Trace Malinowski. I am VERY pleased with how it worked out.
