The oven for the main bend and then a heat gun for more precise smaller bends, while shielding the rest of it with a piece of wood or aluminum. The reason you have to shield it is because it tends to go back to its original shape when heated again.

No time to be excited.. planning everything, but it's all decided on. The cooler fits exactly behind the seat. I bought a cushion for it but it turned out there wasn't enough space behind the seat back to open the cooler fully with the cushion on, so I returned it. No sitting on the cooler then, but no prob.

I figured out an interesting way to secure the cooler to the floor. I didn't like at all the corners they sell to do this, they don't fit well, are too short, and also expensive at $40. So I made my own out of PVC pipe by heating and shaping it. The nice thing is that I molded them directly on the cooler so they fit perfect.

I wish I had taken a pic of the dash for before and after.. I will post a pic soon of everything ready.

Looking very good. What did you use to stop the epoxy track on the bottom, a pipe? If so was it hard to take out once the epoxy was dry?

I want to but I'm not finished getting everything the way I want it. About one more week of work.

Olga, in this picture what is that engine behind you for?

I saw hau's new gun and I was impressed again with Tin Man's craftsmanship. The track fits a 7mm shaft perfectly, it doesn't accept the RA 7.5mm shaft. It's glued on the pipe so well, the whole thing is solid like a rock. There isn't even a tiny run of epoxy anywhere. The fit into the handle is very well made. The CF pipe is surprisingly thin but feels very strong with the track on it.

hau was visibly stoked Ensued a discussion on how long to make the bands for :hau: Nothing high tech on my part, just some good band material and my new wishbone inserts for easy installation of the bands in the closed band slot.

Here's the man with his gun.

Avoid diving when you have a cold/snot. I'm sure some people can have this condition without being sick. You can try inhaling sea water through your nose to flush out the sinuses. Marco posted a good vid on how to do it in this thread http://spearfishing.world/diving/1360-sinus-pressure.html

Cressi Gara are decent plastic starter fins. One of those numbers; 3000 or 2000 is supposed to be stiffer than the other. Stiffer is not always better.

Thanks attan. It's been posted here before http://spearfishing.world/vide…rfishing-competition.html

Interesting images. How deep is that pool?

I've read about this before, just letting you know other people have had it.

It can be due to air trapped behind fillings or a in a cracked tooth. It could also be maxilary sinus squeeze (which can be caused by sinus infections). You can feel this pain in your teeth, it's called referred pain.

You should go see a dentist if it happens again.

Don, what was Buzz Aldrin doing at DEMA?

Thank you Davie, that settles it. Also clears up a doubt I had about the color of the letters.

I'm used to seeing the boat tag on the left gunwale at the bow. On my boat the gunwale is the inflatable tubes and I'm concerned the sticker will not stay on very well. Are there regulations as to where the tag needs to be displayed? I was thinking of sticking it on the console if allowed.

And the sun just came out now.

I used Tin Man's suggestion and the hinge works fine. The only drawback is that since the hinge is bent into shape to receive the pin, forcing the pin in opened up the hole a little. Otherwise the pin would've been jammed in there more securely. Simple and elegant solution as always Jeff Thanks for the help everyone.

Never mind Jeff, I figured out what you meant. The pin is stuck/not rotating in one part of the hinge, thus it doesn't need to protrude on either side. I'm going to try this.
