Re: New diver...this weekend?

Ive dove edmonds and its awesome. With the weather being what it is there should be ample parking next to shore. Ill be there early and will most likely be in a green focus with the license plate VIZITOR. Bald dude.

Re: New diver...this weekend?

My AOW class canceled and I really want to dive. So Sunday sounds good I should be fine by then. So when you say splash at 1:00 does that mean show at 12? Ill be wet as my drysuit doesnt show until Monday. It will help me appreciate it more, he he. Anyone else wet suitin' it?

Re: Anyone have 34 pounds of leadshot weights laying around?

Go to your local sporting goods store. Lead shot is going for about 2 bucks a pound these days. You can put the shot in airtight ziplock baggies doubled up and vacumed out. (Ya gotta measure it of course so you know the weight). Also, with this method you dont have the lead getting wet everytime an...

Re: Dive Computer

Thanks for the heads up. I have a computer on my gauges but liked the way this one keeps quite a bit of good info about dive, that you can later import. Ill read up on the one you got too.

Thanks,

Dive Computer

I really did search the entire forums for this but cannot find anything on it. I could have sworn I saw a link once for a dive logger device that was around 100.00. This could be attached to your PC at a later time and it will log the last few dives you had or something. Or was this a dream? Either ...

Re: Anyone have 34 pounds of leadshot weights laying around?

So far 0 Sax has an 8 pound weight belt for me (Thanks Scott). Last I did a weight check I was a little heavy (bout 3 feet under surface) with 38 pounds. So was figuring about 36 may be my ideal weight. 36 - 8 = 28 Now I would more than happy to compensate anyone with money, beer, or Bison hides sho...

Just thought I would toss a line before going to my LDS and pricing. This is all I need to be rent free.
I looked online but what do you know, shipping would be a little expensive.

DIY BC fix? NHZ

I received an extra BC with a purchase I made to get a couple tanks. It was thrown in. After looking at it, its a pretty nice BC and I would love to give it to a friend of mine as a gift. The ONLY problem was that when I hooked it up there was a small leak of air from the hose button for filling the...
