Go to a construction site and get a scrap of 6" PVC pipe. Cut to length, then split lengthwise into 3 equal pieces. Drill holes to match your wings/backplate. Bolt it to your wings/backplate with carriage bolts, sandwiching a cam band or two underneath the adapter. Strap on a tank and go diving. Make two identical adapters and bolt them together thru a pair of long eyebolts. Strap on a pair of tanks, then use the eyebolts to attach to your wings/backplate/stab jacket. Voila, instant independent doubles. (If you're inclined to use them.) You don't have to spend a fortune at diverite. Dan ========================================================= Daniel R.
