improvised tank mount

My wife forgot to bring one part of the shadow gear. Right now she is unable to mount the cylinders to the canister.

Does anyone know have a suggestion on a next best solution?

Regards,

Derek

Re: improvised tank mount

Cam Straps!

Should be available from the local dive shops for hire or purchase.

Would be really good if they had the pony bottle mounting ones, you'd just need two of them and you'd be all sorted.

Good luck

Seb

Large Hose Clamps. Should be available in a hardware store.

Re: improvised tank mount

Thanks guys,

I mount the tank bands through the shadow gear stainless steel pins and it holds quite well.

The cam strap was tried on too but seemed to be too long around the 3L tank. Seb thanks for the suggestion still.

Take care guys.

Cool idea, one question though, how the heck do you shit the valves of underwater when they are pointing 180 degrees straight out on your back?
