The simplest method I've heard of was explained in the 1972 US Diver's
service manual. That manual said that if a magnahelic (sp?) is
unavailable, the technician can submerge the 2nd stage under 2" of
water, at which point it should crack. However, I have never bothered
to do the math to see how many mm Hg equals two inches of water.

Anyway I am sure some crafty person out there has made one themselves and
saved themselves a bundle. I was just wondering if they would be willing to
share their plans or methods.
In case you dont know what I am talking about it is for the setting up and
tuning of regs usually has a magnahelix (measuring cracking effort)
intermediate pressure guage etc.
