Are you trying to get people to steal stop signs? You didn't think about the consequences of sharing that link, did you?
I do not condone the stealing of road signs to fabricate my designs from... :wink: Whereever did that story go? I bet there are many people these days who have never heard it.
(Edit: found a copy of it: https://asiakas.kotisivukone.com/files/sammakkomies.kotisivukone.com/diverite_39.pdf - also a slightly different telling of the story: The Backplate: Foundation of Technical Rigs - Dive Rite)

FWIW, I'm still - 14 years on - using my own single tank plate based on the design @lowwall shared above on the relatively rare occasions I dive a single tank.

The twinset plate design went through a further iteration - mostly making it narrower at the top - that I never wrote up, and I've never written up my sidemount harness hardware as it's not functionally different from plenty of others already out there - just fun to make.

What do you mean? You are not making the freedom plate anymore?
I am, just not this minute, but I plan to resume production soon.
Pacific Coast Marine was a marine repair, stainless fabrication, U/W vessel maintenance/diving company I had from 2004-2009. I included plate manufacturing in the list of services since it was originally aimed at commercial diving.

Now I just make the plate and sell it online.
