Chicle/smooth skin is more expensive. The outside surface undergoes special treatment, it's not like the open cell interior. The higher cost and my concerns about durability make me very hesitant to produce this suit.

At first glance this is a good thing right?

Beautiful gun. The tool created a very nice effect on the handle.

I think a roller hybrid is a natural choice, because it allows hassle free installation of the bottom band anchors. Something I found to be too labor intensive to implement in a production carbon pipe gun. I'm a little embarrassed, I'm nobody to comment on your work Steve. My personal preferences are just that. That said it looks like the wood stock is much closer in size to the carbon tube, creating a more harmonious flow from one material to the other. Probably affecting the balance favorably also. Nice choice of components. The Meandros automatic reel is killer. The roller muzzle I don't recognize, but it looks well executed. Just when you think it's all been done already..

Another goodie from Mako spearguns, the MAKO Combination 1.5mm Wetsuit Shirt and Removable Hood.

Why is the hood removable? No reason really as it's not connected to the shirt in any way. Maybe Mako means that it's removable from your head, which is a good thing then. The shirts are from good old Aropec https://www.aropec.com/en/prod…uard/SS-5K15P-1M-1mm.html FOB Taiwan $9.80 if you're interested in starting your own named after a shark spearfishing gear company, the domain www.lemonsharkspearguns.com is available

Dan, do you know if an Omer Cayman handle fits into the speardiver carbon barrel without modification?

Yes it fits. Here are pics of the speardiver carbon tube installed with an omer cayman handle.

One of those huh, sweet.

What's stopping you from adding magnets? Anyways the layer of epoxy between the magnet and the bottom of the track should be minimal. Cut the track, drill the magnet hole 1/16" deeper than the magnet, put in the magnet and add a drop of epoxy on top.

Welcome to Speardiver.

Well done. You've given new meaning to "over pour". What I've seen others do runs all over the top of the blank. This is going to turn out sweet.

I'm not sure how teak oil combines with an epoxy track. An epoxy coating is a natural companion to an epoxy track stock.

Wow!

Is that a bull?

Wow is that a real pumpkin?

Welcome to the forum Andres.

Nevermind the track, the cake the cake..

:plusone:

If run a small lighter/torch like the one you've seen me use over the fresh epoxy, it will take out a lot of bubbles.

What JD says about rails in the video is correct. I've been saying the same thing for years http://spearfishing.world/fins…on-rails-explanation.html and implemented it with Speardiver fins from the beginning. It's a smart move to put it in a video. I should do the same.

I'm excited about the bottom line release.
