Hello to everyone

Hi, I am not a full time Rebreather diver, but do like to play around with Home-builds....I have a working a CCR made from a Dyson upright vacuum cleaner, using the entire dust colector as the scrubber, and other scrap bits including a DSMB cut up into two for the c/lungs and a modified 1.5" PVc ball valve for the DSV ! total cost without electronics for under 50 quid

, others include a scrubber from soil-pipe, and a firefighting chest-mount which I have yet to play with. During the winter months I am hopeing to build a 'proper' unit, one which wont scare hell out of folk I dive with.

Zepp,

That's OK, go ahead and scare the hell out of them!

Welcome to Rebreather World!!

Perhaps we should start a contest for "Most Unusual Homebrew"? (Rebreather that is!)

Hi, John was telling me about them, I am interested in one, and maybe the electronics, just that at the mo I have 2 holidays and a building project on the go, so will have to check up on the spare funds

Wotcha Zepp,

Nice to see that you're taking the principles of sheddiness to a new extreme and (gasp) practical level.
