Anxiously awaiting pics. I will get started on my project as soon as winter hits. Probably in late december if that soon

Do we know what the internal volume of the shell is in liters?

Also, anybody know the dimensions of the Dolphin scrubber?

My rebreather is 2000km away from me ...

A word of caution for those using this shell for CCR.
As a SCR Dolphin in original shell etc you will feel the ADV/dosage unit in the middle of your back. The drawing as presnted replicates that same volume.

For those of you wishing to use it for CCR then you will want to gain some extra room so as not to have the ADV/doasge valve being squeezed.

shows the extra circluar bar I added to give more clearance and allow for maximum lung volume when required.
PM me if you need more details.
