Display MoreSo far this video project has cost me $910.
But to me it is worth it because of all the positive attrubutes spearin videos can provide.
1. Entertainment
2. Educational
3. Research and design
4. Legal evidence
etc

How about we figure out once and for all whether video evidence of law breaking against divers is good for anything.
For starters what is the department of state that enforces these laws?

if I have the oppertunity to video a boat screaming by us within 300f (1 football field) the video will be rolling and sent to where it needs to go for effect :angry5:
Where or to whom exactly are you going to send it? How will you send it? What do you think will happen if you do find a willing recipient?

It was a disaster LOL But it was one of the first steps on the road that brought me here today. I would've liked to skip that step though, would've been an extra $300 in my pocket not having trashed that Riffe C3X.
Sorry for the derail Jeff, just reminiscing.

Nice work.
You cut that trigger real short. Reminds me of my first big attempt
-
If you look at the pic hard the sharkfin tab looks like a chip in the CF tube. But then I was thinking WTF is there wood in the track LOL The little bit of wood visible through the line release slot threw me off.

Very nice Jeff. What's left to do?
-
This is an example of waxed nylon whipping line that is not flattened and which IMO is not suitable for this application. The reason I don't like it is because it will cut into the rubber band and your hands when pulled as hard as it needs to be pulled to make the constrictor knot. Actually I use the double constrictor knot and then two more constrictor knots.

This one Waxed band tying twine.
-
You mean something to cover up the knot? Looking forward to it. I hope it's not shrink tubing though because that stuff always falls off.

I have a pair of these wishbones inserts sitting in a cup of seawater to see how good the stainless steel really is. I also need someone to test them in real conditions. I'm willing to make a pair of 5/8 reduced ID bands with these inserts at %50 off for someone local who's diving a lot so they can install them on their gun. hau?

These stainless steel wishbone inserts make it very easy to make your own speargun bands. They insert easily into the rubber tubing. They have a pronounced lip which a constrictor knot holds very securely inside the band. Wishbones tend to deteriorate before the rubber bands, the wishbone inserts eliminate the hassle of retying the bands to replace the wishbone. The Dyneema wishbone is replaced by simply tying a knot at each end. When the band deteriorates the wishbone inserts are reusable. $6 for a pair plus $5 shipping, or pick up in Fort Lauderdale.
I can be contacted by email at info@pursuitspearfishing.com
Notice how easy it is to insert the wishbone insert even into a reduced inner diameter (1/16 ID) speargun band http://spearfishing.world/spea…duced-inner-diameter.html I'm basically doing it with one hand after having lubricated it with spit.

hey Julio! it's been a while. Some huge bugs there. Someone's been asking about your guns, check your thread.

Thanks for the help guys.
The one in the pic I posted is called single cap rapid rivet, and it is available through leather supply.
Once I found that I also found what's called a double cap rapid rivet, which is better for my application.
I ordered it from here http://www.eleathersupply.com/fasteners.shtml

Does anyone know what this kind of fastener is called? A snap or a rivet? It's commonly used to construct leather articles. One piece goes into the other with the leather in between and then you hit the rounded top piece with a hammer to grab the stud. Thanks.

The Reef mech in my gun has the auto reset line release with the tab at the bottom of the sear. It works fine but it's not the same line release as yours.

Could this have something to do with the fact that your trigger touches the trigger guard on the carbon gun?
