More DIR bits and pieces questions:

1: I can't get my wingnuts on my backplate to stay tight.  Maybe I have to 
use a new lockwasher every time?  Or how about adding one of those serrated, 
wavy washers as well.  This is without tools of course; if I use vice-grips, 
they stay.  What does WKPP do, and have any of you others run into this 
problem?

2. I have given up my damn ankle weights; BFD.  My question is, does anyone 
actually use the Halcyon Gator Wraps?  Is this a standard piece of equipment 
for WKPP?

3. Anyone, WKPP included, use the Halcyon closed circuit lift bags?  I have 
problems shooting a bag while simultaneously holding the reel, holding the 
bag mouth open, and sticking my reg inside.  I need about one more arm, and 
I still might go to the surface with the bag if the reg catches in there.  
Any experiences with the Halcyon bags?  WKPP ever uses bags?

4. It bugs me a little that my Jetfins hold a couple of cups of water after 
I take them off and clip them to my d-ring prior to beach walkout.  I'm 
thinking about drilling a few small drain holes in  the bottom of the foot 
pocket.  Anyone else tried this, or think that it will ruin the fin?  
Thanks.

Cam
