 | If I remember rightly, there are also instructions in the Oxyhacker dive light book (The DIVELIGHT COMPANION, a dive light book from Airspeed Press). Also, pictures here from one which went bang. HTH Joe |

 | I made my own pressure vessel (to fool a dive computer into thinking it was being used) out of a big jug half filled with water and a cycle inner tube. Worked ok but only went to a depth of about 6m.

Worked ok but only went to a depth of about 6m. I hope the one I build does not go BANG !! I am building one for a depth equiv. of 120m and big enough for big canister lights and cameras.  I did some stress/pressure and thickness requirement calculations for it so in conclusion, it will be built out 12" Sch 40 316SS pipe with GTAW as the welding process. I will post pics as soon as its built.  A |
