Subject: Re: oms burst disks
Burst disks are just shim mateial. Get a shim kit from a place like
Manhatten Supply and make your own. Carve out the bullshit in the
proprietary disks and replace it. 

I myself have suffered through every one of the dive industry pieces of
shit other than the square light and bondage wings ( not that stupid ),
so I can save all of you a ton of time , money , and trouble by just
telling you what to avoid and why.

Even the bset companies, like Scuba Pro, have some really bullshit gear
in ther lineup, but in the case of some of these jerks, the odds of
getting anything but crap are remote.
