Answers ( since you asked about WKPP ): 1) wingnuts should never be a problem - I do not get this one. I use teflon washers to make them easier to get off - you are doing somethig real weird here. 2) do not use gators - my suit fits properly, and I like to be able to put gas back their when I want to, although I used to use them for swim diving. 3) I use bags, but I use the simple ones, and I use a spool - never use a reel on a liftbag. 4) The fins arre perfect do not screw with them - they hold water so you can wash off your drysuit feet and other sand when you get to your vehicle. Stop thinking so hard. Cam Banks wrote: > > 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?
